Sacred spaces are all around us. While our church building is one such space, there are many other ways that people connect with their physical environments in order to be grounded in their spiritual selves. Together we will reflect on what it means to have a sacred space, what our own sacred spaces are, and how we can make safe and sacred spaces for others.
