We Belong Together (Chalice Ingathering)

Join us for our Ingathering service reminding us we belong together. Ingathering is our annual service celebrating our community. We will share a special water ceremony, enjoy amazing music, and celebrate Chalice folk coming together after years of pandemic and separation. If you haven’t come back in person yet, this is the day to join us. Please also stay after the service for our Fellowship’s Funday – a celebration of community with games, food and fun at Chalice!
