< To Upcoming Services Watch the eBlast for the next scheduled Community of the Earth The congregation is invited to view a new art show collaborative entitled, “The Community of Earth.” Families are welcome. refreshments will be served. “Mahjabeen “ is one of a series of portraits I’m working on of world religious leaders that I met at a conference on Star Island last summer. The conference was on Cross-cultural Conversations, and this resonated with me as an important and necessary component of our Community of Earth. That is what inspired me to coordinate this themed exhibit and to ask all of the artists to express their own interpretation of the Community of Earth. Jane Penfield OOS Sermon YouTube
