SUNDAY SERVICE 

Onsite & Online ~  10 am 

Rev. Kikanza Nuri-Robins & Ayanna Gaines

What Did You Miss? 

The Sabbath is Spirit in the form of time.  Sabbath rest is allowing Spirit to rest within us and connect with God. What happens when you lean into something that is always there?  What do you notice when something that’s always been there goes missing?  What can you learn about yourself and your world during this season of fasting and reflection?
