April 8, 2020

Thought for the day: Lament. There is so much to lament these days. Big and little things. Worries and fears. When we speak our laments out loud, we can give them to God. I invite you to a Holy Wednesday service of Lament today, at 8:00 p.m. online (It’ll be broadcast on ​THIS ​facebook page.) You will be able to “attend” even if you are on our Zoom check in. The service will also be available after the live recording for those who want to watch the tape.
