one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. ~

Taize Worship
On Sunday, December 11, 2016, at 5:00 p.m. we will offer a Taize
Worship Service. Taize is an ecumenical, intentional community
founded in 1940, in Taize, France.
We invite the entire community to participate in this hour of scripture
reading, prayer, and music. If you have never attended, take a risk
take a break from the hectic holiday rush and stop for an hour of prayer
and meditation. You will be recharged and refreshed as if you had been
dipped in living waters.
