To Save or to Savor?

Michael DeSantis

Join us on December 7th at 10:30 am. The writer E. B. White once remarked, “I arise in the morning torn between a desire to save the world and a desire to savor the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.” As we turn our attention to December’s spiritual theme of Salvation, we will reflect on how to tell which of these desires we are called to live out—and which ones we aren’t. If all goes well, we might even get some clarity on how to plan the day!

We warmly invite you to join us in person, or if you prefer, you can also participate online. We look forward to seeing you there! 

Our service streams to Youtube and Zoom (meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623).

Join us for coffee in the Community Room after the service. 

Giving in Action this Sunday

Giving in Action this Sunday is Rocky Mountain Welcome Center.

Rocky Mountain Welcome Center (RMWC) is honored to be this week’s featured community partner. Every day, immigrant and refugee families across the Denver metro area turn to RMWC for trusted guidance, safety, and a place to belong. Our CARES program offers crisis navigation, legal and resource support, and emergency assistance, while our mental health and youth programs help families rebuild stability and hope. In a moment when many of our neighbors are facing increased fear, enforcement, and uncertainty, RMWC continues to be a steady lifeline.

On Sunday, December 7 your generosity will help us meet urgent needs, from supporting families experiencing immigration detention and separation, to providing culturally appropriate mental health counseling in native languages, to ensuring children in transitional housing can learn and thrive through our Kindergarten Prep program. We are grateful for this community’s compassion and partnership, and we look forward to sharing more during the service. Thank you for standing with immigrant and refugee families and helping create a Colorado where everyone belongs.
