Events and News
You are invited! Except for July, we gather together on 3rd Tuesdays at 11:45am. Our next assembly will be on Nov.19 at 11:45am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints at 3902 Berini Dr. Durham, NC. We will be hearing from Rich Gittings with Bull City Legal about non-profit legal services and learning from one another about actions our congregations are taking.
Check out our (free) Election Week Liturgical Resources! Thank you to all who contributed! These resources are for congregations and people of faith who need prayer, song, training, reflection, meditation, etc. during this time in our nation. We welcome you to browse through these messages of unity, hope, challenge, change, love, and peace. (photo credit: Shelley Klammer)
