Join us as our Music Director, PJ Buchan, and our beloved choir, use the technology they’ve learned in the last year to bring us the power of music and singing. We’ll move through our emotions, tell stories, and embrace our continuing commitment to creating just, sustainable communities no matter how we must gather to keep each other safe.
Coordinator: Pamela Hardman
