View the video here. The Soul Matters theme for December is Presence. As we begin to explore how the presence of love, light and compassion, moves us in this holiday season, we will also reflect on absence. Rev. Jaimie will be absent from the congregation, on sabbatical from January to May. The congregation will need to engage in loving presence in order to move through this sabbatical time with strength. Join us as we explore the intertwinings of absence and presence together.
