Online All-Ages Worship (9 August 2020)

Please join us on Sunday (9 August 2020) at 11:00 AM for “Light Among the Means and Ends” by Rev. Barbara Jarrell.

Our service will be livestreamed on Facebook Live here.

Means and ends are inseparable.

How could we ever expect to achieve positive ends through negative means?

We must be able to see and be the light — and to believe in something better — if we are to bring it about for our world.

We will have a  virtual coffee hour after the service on Zoom.

While we are remaining physically distant, we want to know how you are doing, what you need, and what you are interested in.  You can let us know using these online surveys.

And you can contribute to All Souls using this online resource.
