Friends, as a newcomer to the community, I am wowed by the community spirit shown in response to damage throughout the area. One of the things I learned in previous relief efforts was the need for rituals of solidarity to address the grief we feel and to affirm that hope continues even in the face of tragedy. I would like to invite all who might be interested to join us at Grace Church (the Stone Wall Church) for a time of prayer and reflection this coming Sunday at 8:30 a.m. Come join us as we celebrate one another and experience the power of the gathered community. .
