The Christmas season is a time when the juxtaposition of the sacred and secular feels sometimes blatantly opposed, and sometimes quite blurred. The word “sacred” points to something dedicated as
“holy” and “set apart.” This year, you are invited to a spiritual journey of seeing ALL things pregnant with the Holy. What could our experience of the Advent and Christmas season be like if we lived it imagining that everything is reflecting the sacred? Join us for the Sundays of Advent as we engage the sacredness of all of life in word, music, and practice.
The Lake Worth Interfaith network will once again host a Service of Gratitude Thanksgiving Day on 10:30. You can watch on Zoom or on LWIN Facebook page.

Have you explored the opportunity of electronic giving? You can choose to have a set amount taken from your bank account on a regular basis or you can make a one (or more) time gift by checking account or credit card on our website. Your regular electronic giving
