with Jeannie Gagné and Stan Strickland Welcome to Jeannie Gagné and Stan Strickland for our annual worship celebration, “Jazz Sunday!” The rhythms of life are a paradox, moving from darkness into light, into darkness, and into light again. We rejoice when we move into the light, such as when spring arrives. We can grow a garden full of bouquets of joy and possibility, nurturing our garden and one another. It adds up to a magnificent symphonic work made of our collective gardening. Join us on Sunday April 2 as we make music together and celebrate spring. x Click here to
