Service at 10:00 a.m. "Bridging into the Future" Rev. Donna Dolham
The Bridging Ceremony is a Unitarian Universalist rite of passage that will welcome Allison Foust into the rewards and responsibilities of adult life.

On the other side is the vast frontier, waiting for exploration and new challenges. The adult members of this church community are present to greet a “Bridger” with welcome, our minds full of curiosity about what will happen next, and hearts open to support and share this part of their journey of life. Please join us this Sunday as we celebrate this wonderful life passage with Allison Foust and her family.
