Miraculous Moments
In Person, Facebook Live and YouTube. When our thinking stays static in a framework of linear time, every minute appears to be a means to a future end, a resource to be used in the production of eventual outcomes. How do we remind ourselves that each moment is sacred beyond any utility?
In Person Coffee Hour
Be our guest for Coffee in the Atrium before and after the service. Light lunch in the Social Hall after the service.

It’s About Time
Time is one of the great challenges of modern life — we feel stressed, harried, overworked. So often, it feel like we never have enough time for what we need to do.

The Web is the Spaces In Between
Like the atoms at the smallest scale, and the galaxies at the largest, the web is mostly made of nothing. Empty space is the paradoxical hallmark of existence. How do we ensure there is enough empty space in the webs we weave to keep them strong and healthy? ... See MoreSee Less
