“”WORKship” = Service is Our Prayer”

Sunday Worship, Nov 12, 2023, 10:30am

Read the results of our Nov. 12th “WORKship Sunday”

  • “Cheers for all who packed 600 snack bags!“.

Sunday, Nov. 12th — we’ll have a shorter worship service and then we’ll all work. Half worship and half work – workship! We’ll be packing snack bags for immigrants to take with them as they travel to join their sponsors. This will be for The Inn of Southern Arizona — which partners with Casa Alitas — and provides hospitality to as many as 300 people each day. Our goal will be 600 packs and we’ll work in teams of 5 or 6 to get the job done. If you want a sit-down job, you can be a box or bag opener or a bag folder and crate packer. We can do all this work while we laugh and talk.

Worship Lead: Rev. Bethany Russell-Lowe
