"The Church says: The body is a sin.
Science says: The body is a machine.
Advertising says: The body is a business.
The body says: I am a fiesta." (E. Galeano)

Leader/Speaker: Diane Werich. Heather Lynn talked of church as the "School of the Spirit". I have been enrolled in an intensive version of that school for the last two months trying to make sense out of the search and our call vote. This morning I will share what I have learned about my shadow and about our continuing reinvention of our church by confronting our shadows.
