A Sunday full of sweetness! 💛
The kids had a great time baking cookies and making treats together.

We’re grateful for Andy joining us and speaking about his work supporting the homeless in Rochester and for giving us practical ways to make a difference.

So thankful for our church family!

Do you need extra support? Community around shared life experience? Al-Anon members are people, just like you, who are worried about someone with a drinking problem. If you find yourself in need of support, an Al-Anon women's group meets at 5:30pm on Wednesdays here at First Rochester. There are also many other area meetings on their website: https://al-anon.org/al-anon-meetings/find-an-al-anon-meeting/

Take a moment to read about Dr. Marvin A. McMickle's experience growing up in Chicago in his article entitled "When equality feels like oppression". He shares, "What I could not understand was that Dr. King said that racial hatred and mob violence was worse in Chicago in 1966 than it was in Money, Mississippi in 1955."
