Winter Solstice Service Notes

Hey Family!

We got 14 notes on Sunday. They ranged from expressions of gratitude to requests AND we got one beautiful drawing that was unsigned. We are grateful to the 100+ folks who joined us for the last Sunday Service of the year at Northstar Church of the Arts. It was our Winter Solstice Service that we called Darkness Everybody: A Winter Solstice Service. I, Sangodare, preached a sermon I called No Fairy Tale, Only Happily Ever After. Sista Docta Alexis blessed us with Oracle Readings from Audre Lorde’s piece “125th and Abomey” in The Black Unicorn.
