Soup, Salad, & Bread Gathering on Wednesday, May 7th, at 6:15 PM

New Adult LRE Program begins on Saturday morning, May 10th

The Enneagram of Personality Types offers a framework for understanding oneself and others.  Join Rev. Crystal Bujol for this series of three workshops to attain greater self-awareness in a soul-stirring, enlightening, fun manner.  The workshop dates are May 10, May 17, and June 7.  The group will meet at 10:00 AM in the lobby.  Please sign-up in the lobby.

Come to the movies in May with Popcorn Theology!

May's Popcorn Theology showings begin on Friday, May 9th with the 1977 Woody Allen comedy that some critics call his best. Then on Monday, May 26th, a daring, mesmerizing film that combines a Hitchcock thriller and a spellbinding love story with a twist.  This Oscar winner from 1992 is the story of an unlikely friendship between an Irish Republican Army volunteer and a kidnapped British soldier.

Films are scheduled for the second Friday and the last Monday of each month at 7:00 PM in the choir room.  There is no charge, and no reservations are necessary.   Please enter through Door "D" on 27th Avenue.  All are welcome!

Crafts group gathers on first and third Monday mornings

Those wonderful women who have volunteered to assist the Green Sanctuary Task Force make beautiful cloth shopping bags have been having so much fun that they have decided to continue meeting on a regular schedule. Bring your knitting, crocheting, needlepoint, counted cross stitch, beadwork, quilting, or sewing and come to the Choir Room at 9:30 AM on the first and third Monday of each month. Socialize and get acquainted with other Crafty Ladies while working on that craft project you never have time for! Men are welcome too!
