Therefore, our focus is on “Peace, Social Justice and the Interdependent Web” — knowing, as Radha Sahar has said, that “everything relates to everything else.” Please join us in celebration.

Each year, we offer the congregation the opportunity to purchase one or more Easter lilies per person to decorate the sanctuary for Easter Sunday.
Just as we do with the poinsettias for Christmas, members and friends can purchase a lily for $10 and write a dedication to honor or memorialize someone dear to their hearts.
The dedications will be published in the Order of Service (unless you request anonymity with your donation).
Fill out the form in your Order of Service or call the church using a credit card ($11.00 with the processing fee) and dictate your dedication over the phone.
After the service, the lily is yours to keep. If you plant it in a shady spot in your yard, it will come back year after year.
