Tuesday Night
Co-Conspirators
TUESDAYS AT 8PM ET VIA ZOOM
Join us in our casual discussion-style service on Tuesday evenings. Centered around a theme, we ask questions that are relevant to our situation in the world today. We begin with a simple song, followed by three different readers for the session's prompt and scripture. Between each reading, we'll observe a moment of silent reflection, then individually contemplate the readings and discuss our thoughts on the topic as a group. Then we will pray, share the peace and sing. We hope you will join us!
Send us your email to get started, and we'll email you the Zoom link along with the session's topic.
