Did You Know…?

… that Rev. Dr. Sheryl Johnson, associate member of our congregation and wife of Rev. Kelly, has a book coming out this week?  Serving Money, Serving God is about the tension we sometimes feel between our highest values as communities of faith and our worries about the budget.  If you’ve ever wondered about how we allocate our resources or how we could bring our practices more in line with our faith, this book might help!  You can get a signed copy from Rev. Kelly or from Sheryl when she comes to speak in a couple of months, or you can pre-order here: https://bookshop.org/p/books/serving-money-serving-god-aligning-radical-justice-christian-practice-and-church-life-sheryl-johnson/18642747?ean=9781506482965
