Rev. Emma Chattin, Preaching: “What’s Eating You”

So many things consume us these days: anger, anxiety, worry, resentment…
It is so easy to be vexed by the corrupt!
We may think it is the time in which we live.
However, this is not a new thing.

Celebrating 53 years of Metropolitan Community Churches Worldwide!
Sunday morning worship … Join Us ONLINE or IN-PERSON at 11AM on Sunday Morning!
