Seven Hours: Atonement

Sunday Brunch

Sunday, January 12 from 9-11am CST hybrid, via zoom.

Do you wish there was an easier way to have meaningful conversations about faith and life with your family and friends?

At Sunday Brunch, you set the stage for connection and intentional conversations by inviting the people you want to gather with into your home. You are the host and the menu-setter. 40 Orchards is the facilitator. At the designated time, your entire table joins virtually with a 40 Orchards circle. With a mix of full group check ins and breakout conversations, we engage with our questions and search the sacred– together. For those who would like to join on their own, there is an opportunity to be placed in a breakout room for table conversations.

 This is a large group facilitated virtual circle without a cap on the number of participants. Suggested donation $25 per login. As always,  we don’t want cost to keep you from coming. Sliding scale and alternate payment options available at registration. All money collected supports the mission and vision of 40 Orchards.
