Winter Mission u in February—Finding and Building Peace in an Anxious World

Please save Sunday afternoons in February for this important virtual study, Finding and Building Peace in an Anxious World.  We will meet from 2-4:30 p.m. on February Sundays and Rev. Su DeBree will lead the study and discussion.  We plan to explore how to build and sustain peace within ourselves, our families, our communities, and our world.  The study will offer spiritual tools and actions we can take to calm anxieties and use our faith to serve as peacemakers in anxious times.  The registration can be found at:  https://mtnsky-reg.brtapp.com/MissionUfindingpeace2024.  The link also includes recommended reading for the sessions.
