Join with community on Sunday, December 21 from 3:30pm to 5:30pm for a Midwinter Celebration, a neighborhood walk filled with light, song, poetry, and shared warmth. We’ll start at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, move together through the heart of Longfellow, I will lead some singing somewhere in there… and end at Moon Palace Books & Pangea World Theater for warm drinks and connection. It’s a moment to slow down, be outside together, and feel the season in a new way.
