Though we continue with livestream-only worship and virtual ministries for the near future, we are here to work for justice, stand in solidarity with those who are marginalized and brutalized, and hold accountable all who are oppressing others. Please let me know in what ways we can be a more helpful presence for Nob Hill and beyond. Praying for the way forward.
