Our Love Without Limits series
continues into the new year!
Beginning this Sunday....


Beginning this Sunday, January 8th, from 10:45am to Noon, we will use Jim Wallis’ book, America’s Original Sin: Racism, White Privilege and the Bridge to a New America, as the focal point for conversations about race in America. Reading the book will be helpful, but not required, to participate in these discussions.


For the first session, this Sunday January 8th, we recommend that those who are reading the book read from the Foreword through Chapter 1. Bring your book and your Bible.
If you still need a copy of the book we have a few extras to give out, contact Pastor David or Rachael.

Let’s explore how we can work together toward racial justice, healing, and reconciliation in our communities and across the country.


Save the Date!
