This Christmas morning, we’ll hear the story of Jesus’ birth and sing a few traditional Christmas songs together. Please bring a sweet treat to share for a festive coffee hour.
Share the Plate
Our Share the Plate for Dec. 25 and Jan. 1 will go to Yahara House, a community mental health program that focuses on recovery through social connection, meaningful activity, and reintroduction to community employment. This collection is in honor of Eric Lindblom who was a member of our community and lived with schizophrenia.
