TN Interfaith Power and Light (an interfaith organization dedicated to upholding sacredness of all creation) will partner with Wednesday Family Fellowship to bless our new garden space, built by the Green Team, on April 19! We are looking forward to celebrating and sharing our budding green space.  We will have dinner together in Fellowship Hall at 5:00 pm and make our way out to the garden area (if good weather) around 5:40 for the short blessing service. Afterwards, we will screen a 75 min documentary called "Current Revolution: A Film Series for the Energy Transition" back in the Fellowship Hall. More about the film here.

No dinner or program on April 5 for Wednesday Family Fellowship. Instead, come to Maundy Thursday dinner and service on the next day, April 6, at 6 pm! We will resume our Wednesday Family Fellowship programs the following week.
