This Sunday

“Warming Our Welcome, Brightening Our Future”

Livestreamed  at 10:30 am From sand and quartz, to light and vision, we are always creating one love note at a time as we care for our church and our earth.  Today we publicly launch our capital campaign through celebration of our past and recommitment to our future.  

Our April Share the Plate is The Afro-American Music Institute

The Afro-American Music Institute,  located at 7131 Hamilton Avenue, has provided musical programs of excellence since 1982.  Under the guidance and tutelage of James and Pamela Johnson, the institute offers specialized instrumental and vocal training in all styles of African American music for all age groups.  A special emphasis is put on programming for children and young adults.  There are music classes and ensembles including a boys’ choir.    https://afroamericanmusic.org/
