Fourth Sundays, Worship in Action, provide a way for us to spend time with neighbors in South Lake Union and beyond. Here are some ways to be a neighbor this Sunday: Note meet at 415 Westlake Ave N at 10 a.m. unless time or location specified.
Some folks decide to take time in their neighborhood to spend time with a neighbor, come alongside a work project or visit another church. Please share your stories. Questions? reneen@upc.org
