Because we are celebrating 25 years as a parish, we are 'Weaving Together a Community.' A weaver will set up a loom inside of the Chapel Hall. Not only will he demonstrate the art of weaving, community members and festival attendees are invited to throw the shuttle and be a part of the weaving process. The completed small tapestry will be on display for the remainder of the year’s celebratory events.
