Test the Waters!

If you live near our mountain, come test the waters on Saturday May 5th.   You will get a chance to find out about our congregation, tour the facilities, meet some fine folks, and enjoy a free lunch.   We are a pretty unique congregation for this area.  We are More Light (LGBT inclusive), progressive, and a lot of fun.   Here is our webpage.  

There is no pressure "to join" but we would sure to love to have you do so if that is where Spirit leads.  Send me an email if you think you might like to come so we can get an idea of how much food to prepare.  Our nursery will  be open!
