This week is our “Homecoming Sunday”, where we welcome back the full choir and the Metropolitan Silver Band, which is celebrating 90th anniversary this year! It will be a spirit-filled gathering of music, inspiration, challenge, hope and of course, plenty of goodies after the service (please contribute to the bounty by bringing something tasty). In Rev. Meyers’s sermon, "Beauty Begets Beauty", we will consider the role of the church in these days that are so often defined by conflict. Online or in person, you are invited share the beauty of our community by inviting a friend, or anyone who could use a bit of beauty in their life, to church this week.
