World Wide Communion & Hospitality

We've all heard of the 'Golden Rule' and 'doing unto others what you would have them do unto you'. But have you heard of the 'Platinum Rule'? It makes all the difference in our ministry of hospitality! Join us as we welcome each other to the Table of Jesus, the Christ, and celebrate communion this World Wide Communion Sunday.
The 'Bread of Life and Forgiveness' is one of our many tools of hospitality.

If you are celebrating with us on-line, we invite you to 'set' a table for worship with your symbols.
Bring a little bread and drink for communion.

Visions in the Cloud – June 19

Welcome

Life at the Heart of the Universe

The mystery of the Trinity is a spiritual and religious way of understanding what animates life at the heart of the universe. This week we dust off the doctrine of the Trinity as we play with a fidget spinner, ponder what it means to be alive and in relationship, and go into creation searching for some 3-leaf clovers or shamrocks!
