12 Life

The Rev. Brian Eslinger

To our conscious minds, it seems that we live a linear existence, a starting path from birth to death, while surrounded by the recurring circular seasons of life, death, and life’s return. Easter connects those two aspects of our story with ancient symbols and miraculous stories. In these connections, we can find reasons for joy. Join in our celebration of the creative process that leads us toward life. We will host a child-dedication celebration at both services. Please contact the Rev. Brian Eslinger or DYCM Lori Allen to register your family or for more information.

19 Earth Day

The Rev. Brian Eslinger, Lori Allen & Erv Klaas
