How Can I Keep From Singing?

, ,

Community singing cultivates trust and resilience. At this special music service, we will explore what it means to sing Beloved Community into being. Join the Sacred Breath Choir and the JRUUC Folk Group for a musical morning celebrating the harmony we create when we join our voices together.
