"The Spiritual Power of Strength"
Michael Brundy, Speaker
Sanctuary and Livestream on Facebook
Strength is more than force or endurance—it is a spiritual power that helps us stay steady, persevere with grace, and remain aligned with Truth when life feels challenging or uncertain. In this talk, we explore Strength as a quiet, sustaining energy that supports us through long journeys, difficult seasons, and meaningful change. Together, we’ll discover how true Strength is renewed through faith, wisdom, and conscious choice, allowing us to stay the course without losing ourselves.

SpiritGroup Sunday
"We Come Together: Gathering in Spirit, Growing in Love"
Rev. Rebecca Rickey
Sanctuary and Livestream on Facebook
Gathering in groups to fellowship, talk, enjoy food, and support one another has been a thing since the early beginnings of civilization. Entire social, cultural, religious, and political movements have risen from, and been supported by, small gatherings. And humans thrive on the social support, safety, love and compassion that is found in the welcoming space of fellowship. Let’s explore how our being together opens our hearts and minds and helps change our thinking, our lives, and the world in new and positive ways. Let’s come together!
