The Gospel of Making Connections
Rev. Jeff Barz-Snell
Wherever you are on your faith journey, you are welcome here.
Today, many of us are seeking something, but often don’t quite know what it is. “Life could be better, more complete, if……”
Maybe we are missing friendly connections among people of all ages, support during hard times, or the spark of inspiration to build equality and justice for all. Or it could be a need for soaring music, contemplative thinking, or weekly mindfulness meditation… Or perhaps a deep yearning for a spiritual journey and compassionate faith.
Maybe the simpler question is: could life be better – could we be better – if we opened our hearts?
