We invite you to join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. MST as we celebrate the lifetime of ministry and service of Marilyn Richea, Dave Smith, and Carolyn Smith (Long) as they receive their Priesthood Emeritus certificates and recognition. They will be sharing what their calls meant to them, and we will also offer congregants a chance to share their experiences of how they have received ministry, mentorship, and inspiration from these three wonderful individuals. If you can’t attend in person, I invite you to contact any of these three and share how their lives and ministry have impacted you.

Additionally, we’ve learned that a strategic partner of Community of Christ, Encounter World Religions, has just begun a six-week adventure in the Middle East. You can follow Brian's journey via his blog on Facebook by clicking on the button below.

Check out the announcements below, and don’t hesitate to reach out to me via email or phone if you have any questions or concerns.
