Everything Possible

Sunday morning at 10am

with Maddie Sifantus

Strong and bold, or quiet and kind, every one of us is unique and filled with possibilities. Our service today is based in part on Fred Small’s iconic folk song that became an anthem for generations. Everything Possible celebrates love and friendship, encouraging us to dream our own dream, choose our own path, and embrace our possibilities, wherever they may take us.

Children and youth have the option of staying for the entirety of the service or joining the Sunday WE program upstairs partway through.

Voting and Elections for Kids! - Richmond Public Library

This is the last Sunday to vote!

Throughout the month of April, children and youth will be voting on the organizations that will be receiving the proceeds from our WE market being held on May 3. Each Sunday they participate in WE, they will have an opportunity to vote for their top three choices. At the end of April, all votes will be counted. The top three organizations will receive a donation from the Chalice WE Program–1st place will receive 50% of the total proceeds, 2nd place, will receive 30%, and 3rd place will receive 20%.
