Leaning into the tape

MMOCOur new parish hall seems like a winning runner, leaning forward into the tape. The main floor, at least, seems to be racing to its conclusion. Yet, everywhere, there also are looks to our roots.

Ladies_Room - CopyThe restrooms are nearly complete, and a bit luxurious. They will seem grand, at first.

I hope we will be like a family, moving tentatively into a new house, feeling our way, deciding together how to use this new resource. I hope we will use it to serve each other and our community. I hope we will use it to educate and also to learn from each other. So much potential and so much hope!
