Sunday, July 5, 2020 | HOPE
Welcome
Opening Music | Ellen Gilbert, Organist & Pianist
Children’s Story | “Circles of Hope” by Karen Lynn Williams; illustrated by Linda Saport
The indomitable spirit of Hope is on display as Facile plants and replants the gift of a tree for his new baby sister Lucia. He is determined to succeed as one planting after another is; eaten, washed out, burned and then finally thrives to grow into maturity and provide shade and shelter.
