The video will also be available on the Eliot Chapel Facebook page which will allow you to comment and interact. We welcome your participation! We have decided to close the office August 1-16, so our staff can have some badly-needed time off. The business of the church will continue though some things may be altered or delayed. On Sunday, August 9, join Rev. Barbara in attending worship at Foothills Unitarian Church in Fort Collins, Colorado. Their services are amazing, and they love hosting other churches. They meet at 10:00 Central Time, so we can scoot back over to Eliot for Zoom Coffee Hour at 11:30! You can access their worship service here or on Eliot Chapel's Facebook page. Sunday, August 16, Rev. Krista will lead worship live via Zoom. Watch your email for the link. And of course, there will be coffee hour at 11:30! Eliot Chapel Welcomes the Rev.
