December 2021
The return to in-person services includes a return to the sharing of beautiful art work in the Sanctuary and Gallery. Chinh and Jeri Le were generous in the sharing of their art in December — batiks by Chinh and weaving by Jeri. If you haven’t been able to see it in person, here’s a video of the collection, set to “China Gates” by John Adams, played by David Servias.
