Vegan Potluck and Documentary Screening (15 March 2026)

The All Souls Peace Alliance is hosting a vegan potluck and documentary movie screening this Sunday (15 March 2026) following the 11:00 AM worship service.

Please bring a vegan dish to share and please bring copies of the recipe to share with others.  Stay for the movie and be entered to win a $50 cash drawing.

We will be viewing The Land of Ahimsa.

The Hindu concept of ahimsa is compassion for all beings, but this documentary focuses on the dairy and farming practices of India that do not necessarily live into that ideal.
