Embracing Humility: Lessons from the Edge of Existence

How does our understanding of death, with its inherent humility and vulnerability, deepen our connections and teach us to live with intention and compassion? As we navigate this delicate threshold, we question: How can we hold ourselves together while we’re breaking apart? In the heart of our journey towards Easter, we turn to the second chapter in our three-part series, inviting you into a contemplative exploration of dying and the profound lessons it imparts on communal living. This service weaves together thought, music, prayer, and story, reflecting on our shared human experience and the bonds that sustain us through life’s transitions. Join us in this reflective exploration of the spaces between life and death, community and solitude, fear and hope, embracing the full spectrum of our existence with open hearts and minds.

A gentle reminder that our Easter service on March 31st, open and welcoming to attendees of any age, will keep to our regular service schedule with two opportunities to join us, one at 9 AM and another at 11 AM. This day promises a special experience for our entire community, as we gather to celebrate and reflect in unity. We look forward to sharing this meaningful occasion with you, your families, and friends, embracing the joy and spirit of Easter together.
