At this Sunday’s Budget Town Hall, we will all see the anticipated budget for the coming fiscal year. Please join in for that important meeting ~ with bagels and fruit at 11:15 to tide you over (online attendees: use the same link as the Sunday service). Pledges keep coming in, but as I write, we are about $70,000 short on our budget.

If you have not yet pledged, please do so if you are able to, so the Board decisions can be as careful as possible.
Many thanks, and here’s to seeing you this Sunday, April 7❤️.
Blessings,
