As our Song of Welcome (“Gather the Spirit”) will have us sing: “Gather in hope, compassion and strength. Gather to celebrate once again.” After another unusual year that tested our resolve and resilience, we have reason to be hopeful, grateful, and to celebrate. We will sing the praises of this year’s volunteer award recipients. We will reflect on the nature of hope. And we will acknowledge and celebrate the beauty within each of us as we exchange virtual flowers during our Flower Communion. To participate, please email your flower (picture of your face with a flower) to lyn@concorduu.org. Our Hats & Tales Auction will commence shortly after the service in our Zoom Hall.
