SUMMARY:Service: Resurrection and Renewal (and maple communion)
DESCRIPTION:Borrowing from traditional Easter and springtime themes\, our own Brett Richardson will draw from aspects of his own story\, having walked through addiction\, homelessness and recovery to explore the relationships between spiritual death and resurrection; isolation and connection; and autonomy and community. We will consider how to participate in community in ways that make giving feel like receiving and receiving feel like giving. We will also celebrate our annual maple communion.

SUMMARY:Hope: An Intergenerational Service
DESCRIPTION:In this intergenerational service\, we will explore hope not as a feeling we wait for\, but as something we practice together. Through story\, music\, and shared joy\, we will reflect on the small\, steady ways hope takes root in our lives…often quietly\, and often in community. Our children will help lead us in a simple planting ritual\, reminding us that even the smallest acts of care can grow into something meaningful.
