From the Pastors

  • I was excited to send you Christmas greetings from the whole staff. We’d gathered, 8 out of 10 present in Zoom’s little boxes. Our hair was coiffed, our backgrounds free of paper piles, and 1 of us had even pushed pause on their vacation to be part of wishing all of you the spirit of the season.


  • This week we will celebrate the first Sunday of Advent. Many of us wonder how we will spend this most sacred season when we cannot enact so many of our traditions.


  • Worrying night and day about the election process and election outcomes?  Let’s stop for a few minutes and be together 7:00-8:00 p.m. Saturday-Wednesday, October 31-November 4.


  • We’re now 3 weeks out from a fraught presidential election, and many of us are finding ourselves in a higher zone of anxiety. Maybe you feel it in your body, or perhaps you’re unable to focus as well as usual (is it the election or is it pandemic? likely, both). We’re also facing the fact that we will likely have to wait for election results much longer than we often do. How will you take care of yourself leading up to and beyond November 3?
