January’s Newcomers’ Retreat was, unfortunately, cancelled. The year-end holiday season proves to be a very hectic time. As a result we had fewer newcomers register for the retreat than expected – too few, in fact, to meet our goals of building community and connecting as deeply as we might.

Our next scheduled Newcomers’ Retreat is set for Sunday, April 19, 2026, and we hope you will register and join us then. If you are eager to learn more about this community before the April Retreat, we invite you to meet with our minister, Rev. Dr. Molly Housh Gordon.  She welcomes the opportunity to meet and share more about our faith and about our community. To schedule time with Rev. Molly, please email her.

Also, we hope you will register for the next Newcomers’ Retreat and potluck on April 19 here.

In other membership news, we plan to tidy up the nametag holder. Also, if you have a tattered or larger nametag, you will receive a new one. Please let us know by email if you need a name change or would like your pronouns updated.
