Sunday, June 29
a special “OneSong” style service led by Pete Furlong and Gerri Ratigan with our music team.

This year we started a new tradition for months that have a 5th Sunday, as does June this time around.
We forego the typical Sunday morning Order of Service for a music-centered service in the style of our Sunday evening OneSong services. Pete and Gerri will offer an inspiring hour of song, chant, meditation and reflection.
