Even though our church has not met in person since mid-March 2020, the leadership has tried to build community. They dropped off Easter lilies last year, and when they brought poinsettias, the pastors filmed themselves lighting candles for a Christmas Eve video. The deacons have sent cards for major holidays, and for Holy Week this year, they painted a labyrinth on the church parking lot. That way, anyone can stop by to pray or meditate as they walk the path to the center, where the medallion reads "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." The kids made decorations that now hang in the trees, brightening up the space for us and our neighbors.
