September is Recovery Month
SpiritWorks Foundation is hosting the First Fridays Recovery
Eucharist on September 7, at 5:30 p.m. at Bruton Parish, Williamsburg.
The service is designed with prayers and readings that focus on helping
people find ways to live faithfully in the midst of any kind of
suffering, especially individuals and their loved ones who are living
with addiction, co-dependence, mental illness, and trauma. We pray for
those who are continuing to struggle, mourn those who have died, and
celebrate with those who are experiencing the joy of recovery. Parking
is available on Duke of Gloucester Street during the service.
