Shall We Gather at the River: A Night of Singing in Community

Date: June 11
Time: 7:00-8:30
Location: Community Mennonite Church of Lancaster

As a part of water week, please join us for an inspiring evening of hymns, spirituals, and songs that celebrate the life-giving power of water—through beautiful imagery of rivers, streams, and renewal. Whether you come for the music or the message, this is a space for reflection, connection, and joy in community.
