COMMUNITY HEALTH -
Join Pastor Nicolette and other leaders from across Morris County on Monday, March 15th at 7:30pm as we prepare to launch Morris Area Together. We’ll hear updates and proposals from our teams working on issues like housing, mental health & substance use, and criminal justice. We will then turn to preparing for a broad, public launch in April. Please consider joining us. We’re hoping to have a team of 4-10 people from our congregation attend.
