We are joining with others across the country as part of the nation’s Hands Off Day of Action. This will be a nonviolent, broad-based action bringing all of us together from many different causes, communities, and issue areas, as the attacks from Trump are impacting us all.

This Sunday – after worship! Field trip to the Garfield Park Conservatory – we’ve already saved a ticket for you. This year’s theme, “Rooted in Mystery,” explores the critical parts of plants that we don’t usually see – the roots! – and also ties in beautifully with our Lenten Theme.
