Workshop on a wide variety of ministry topics will be offered in the afternoon. For information, contact Cynthia at the church or the Fair Director, Rebecca Merwin at 213.482.2040.

Ministry Opportunity
Interested in becoming part of a creative, meaningful, occasional ministry? Become a member of the now-forming Taizé Set-Up Crew. No previous experience required, but a fascination with candle light is a MUST! Brian is looking for some fresh creative energy from a few individuals who will learn how the candlelit icon display and worship space have been set up for past Taizé services and explore new layouts and possibilities.
Contact Brian: brian@bsdriscoll.com or (818) 404-8480
