On this Ingathering Sunday, we will look at the importance of religious rituals as an expression of our faith. We will celebrate a Water Ceremony and a Blessing of the Backpacks during the service, so please bring water from your summer travels, or you may use symbolic water that will be provided. All are welcome to bring their backpacks to be blessed in hopes of a safe new school year.

There will also be a picnic in the Peace Garden after the service, so please bring a lunch and a lawn chair and join us.

Tune in to the live stream on YouTube or join us live at the sanctuary.
