Every Day We Can Begin Again

New Year brings to mind new beginnings.  What if we lived as if every day offered us a chance to start over…to begin again.  How might we change our relationship to the passage of time and the mysteries of what the future holds?  Join us at our New Year’s Eve service as we explore new beginnings, give thanks (and a toast) for the blessings of 2023 and call in our intentions for 2024.
