Creation Caretakers Take on First Project
We celebrate a newly-formed team, our Creation Caretakers! This team is open to all and passionate about exploring our connection to the environment. As people of faith, we are called to be good stewards of our earth so it's a great fit to advocate for a clean and healthy future for all. Want to hear more about this team's work? Contact Laura Wild at lmwild2001@yahoo.com.

They'll be available after worship the next several weeks to invite signatures for Initiative 1631. This initiative would expand clean energy like wind and solar and make corporations pay for their pollution. Supporting this initiative is a way to deepen the conversation about care for creation in our houses of worship and answer the call to be advocates for the common good.
Summer of Stories Begins in July
As Pastor Jenny embarks upon her July renewal leave, we're excited to welcome a variety of voices to share their stories with us. We welcome Tanya Pile, Rachel Neer, Kate Kilroy & Aaron Ronning to lead us in worship in July! Our worship gatherings will be rich and meaningful as we connect this summer with God and each other in new ways.

Deep Roots Begins this Fall
Got some big questions about faith, Jesus, the Bible, what we believe and how it really changes our lives? Consider joining a new kind of class this fall. We've traditionally offered Confirmation to our teenagers as a way for them to explore faith and take their next steps on their own discernment. This year, we're opening it up to adults who want to make a similar journey. Tanya Pile will facilitate this on Sundays during the 9:45 service. Chat with Tanya this summer if you want to know more!
