Join us for Talk and Tapas! Members of the Gloria Dei and St. Catherine's joint planning task force have developed a number of wide-ranging ideas for shared ministry in the Capilano area. Now they need your feedback, and want to hear what other ideas you might have - or could brainstorm over some appetizers and a beverage! This informal discussion between members of both congregations will help to shape new approaches that will take place over the summer and fall months, and pave the way for further proposals in the new year - so don't miss your chance to dream big about our shared future! (And don't miss out on some great eats, good company, and the opportunity to get to know each other better!)

 

Please save the late afternoon/early evening of Saturday, June 7 for what is sure to be a stimulating social evening. More details to follow soon!
