Reverend Nica Eaton-Guinn
Faith in Our Future
“We are the ones we have been waiting for,” wrote June Jordan in her “Poem for South African Women,” which she presented at the U.N. in August 1978. Today, we hear from long time members as well as younger, newer members about what inspires them about Chalice and gives them faith in our future. Join us for an inspirational service, helping us renew our faith and reminding us we are the ones we have been waiting for.
