› Adult Forum: Getting to know FUSE
Sunday, January 20 / 9:00 am
in Fellowship Hall
s a congregation we have been involved with FUSE (Fellowship of Urban and Suburban Engagement) for a couple of years through members participating in monthly conversations, hosting the FUSE community here in our Fellowship Hall, participation in the annual 4Ever Grateful Concert, and through grant funding. Yet, we are still getting to know this new partner, including the opportunities for building cross-community relationship and understanding that is a focal point of the FUSE mission. This Sunday, Steering Committee members Bonnie Breit and Clyde Killebrew, along with Rev. Sarah Cooper Searight, will share what FUSE has been up to and the hopes for what lies ahead as we continue to strengthen the fabric of our shared community
