Welcome Each Moment
Led by Rev. Stephen Shick
The poet William Blake wrote: Joy and woe and woven fine clothing for the soul divine…and when this we rightly know safely through the world we go.” Spiritual practices can help us welcome both joy and sorrow into our lives. During worship this Sunday we will explore some of these practices and how they can help you move safely through the world.
