As the echoes of July 4th celebrations fade, join us for a quiet evening of reflection, prayer, and song. Our Taizé service offers a space to breathe deeply, seek peace, and renew your spirit through candlelight, scripture, and meditative music. All are welcome—come as you are and find rest for your soul.

A new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that about 7 in 10 of us feel anxious or frustrated when we think about Tuesday's presidential election.

It doesn't have to be that way. Another world is possible for all of us.

You are invited to spend an hour with others in Sloop Chapel, Crossnore, NC, for a time of centering prayer and meditation. It's worship without preaching -- partisan or otherwise.

You *can* find peace in your spirit, while the nations rage.
