Wednesday, June 9, 2010 at 3:07PM This Sunday we will dedicate our community garden. It is growing before our eyes! To get you thinking, you might want to follow this link to see what the world eats. What is on your dinner table? What do you think is on the dinner table of people who don't have enough to eat? Our garden will help feed some of those people, changing the picture for some of them. We'll worship in the Gathering Space this Sunday and celebrate the Sacrament of Communion to feast at the Lord's Table. The name of the game this Sunday is food!
