Even in this season of growing light, grief, pain, and the sharpness of loss can tinge even the deepest joy. Join Foundry on Tuesday, Dec. 21 at 7 p.m. for a worship experience – including sacred music and communion – that creates space for any of us who are needing space to grieve, to reflect, or simply to escape the holly jollies and recenter. Let us come together and create space for the Spirit to speak a word of healing, hope, and peace into your life in this holy season.
