This weekend offered us a reminder that our monthly theme, Perseverance, does not mean moving forward no matter what. Sustainable perseverance requires us to use discernment and care to keep ourselves and others safe and well.
With that in mind, Sunday's services were canceled due to the wintry weather and dangerous road conditions. We hope that everyone is safe and warm!
Perseverance at a time like this means taking care through the storm and being there when the storm passes --- so, weather permitting, we hope to see you all next week!
Next Sunday, February 18th:
