Michaelmas falls near the autumn equinox, marking the end of the harvest and the summer. Although the weather still tends to be warm in our part of the world, the seasons will soon begin to change, and the days grow ever shorter. This shift marks a time of turning inward, a time of gathering strength to face the growing darkness.

We will gather as a community to celebrate this time of year and the harvest. We will sit down together with an offering of vegetable soup, cornbread, apple cider and apple crisp.
