We are pleased to share that the first class of our Brookside 5Rhythms: A 6 Week Embodied Movement Series

with Sayrah Garrison went very well! The series continues THIS COMING SUNDAY from 1-2:30PM in Scialla Hall with an exploration of Flowing, the first of the 5Rhythms. Drop-ins are welcome and we encourage you to come check out this transformational movement practice. All are welcomed to join us!

To help us prepare for the meeting, please help us plan for an accurate budget by telling us your giving intentions. We have received notification of your intentions to give $132K of the $150K needed to sustain our mission and ministry. Can you help close that $18K gap?:

In our Hearts, In our Prayers:

The prayers shared aloud on Sunday morning*

Those who grieve, especially the friends and family of longtime member of the Brookside church community, Dick Patton, and all those who are impacted by gun violence.

Those who feel broken in body, mind, or spirit

Those who are anticipating an upcoming surgery

Those in times of discernment and change

Our leaders, our communities, our nation
