Praise be! Writers. This “call to workshop” is our literary version of Sunday Mass in which we’ll share communion with the page. Offered the fourth Sunday of each month, members of the congregation will respond to prompts that invite us to pen our petty penchants, fractious fragments, fabricated fictions, flights of fantasy, baffling or beautiful blasphemies—whatever might come and however it might arrive on the page.

Saints, sinners, non-believers, and writers of all denominations are invited to participate. • Candles will be lit and benevolent spirits summoned • Blessings will bestowed for all literary endeavors • Forgiveness will be given for all grammatical malefactions and syntactical misdeeds • Miracles may occur/offerings accepted April’s liturgical leader is Visiting Rabbi Israela Goodsoul (aka the wonderful Janice Alper), a member of the lost tribe of Israel.
