    Chalice Family Update

    April 24, 2025

    In April, the theme is the Practice of Joy

    The Joy of Collective Action

    Sunday morning at 10am

    with Abrah Steward & Tim Snowber, Clint Fultz

    The connection we have to each other in this congregation is important and powerful. Today we celebrate Earth Day by looking at how Collective Action can lead to deeper connection personally and greater impact for good in the world. Chalice member Clint Fultz and CFROG representative Abrah Steward will catch us up on the work of this local organization. This, in turn, gives us a chance to consider how joining together can be a vehicle to manifesting greater joy in our lives.
