How can We Help?

Sunday morning at 10am

with Rev. Nica Eaton & Shoshana Brower

At a time when there is so much negative energy and things are tough for many, some of the most profound ways we can be of service in the world is by helping our neighbor. Today, Shoshana Brower joins Rev. Nica to share true stories of Albanians saving Jews during WW2. These are stories of heroism, care, and helping that can encourage and inspire us all at this time. Join us to explore how we can help.

Families welcome! The Joy Corner is open!

Children will be led by the Lamp of Love to their RE spaces partway through the service.
