About the Event

How are we doing? In times of joy and sorrow, safety and uncertainty, hope and despair, simplicity and complexity, …how are we doing? Living through the many seasons of life will strain, drain, and definitely bring the pain and suffering. There are no fixes, quick or otherwise. No short cuts or life-hacks, but there is a way through. Come as we rediscover the way of compassion; the way of faith, the way of Christ. We’ll do it with song, word, interaction, reflection, humor, silence, and most importantly, we’ll do it together.
