- **Event Description**: Jazz Prayer | Bitter-Sweet

Join us Friday, March 20 for a deeply reflective evening of live jazz, readings, poetry, and prayer as Jazz Prayer continues its season exploring the five senses.

This month’s theme, Bitter-Sweet, connects the spiritual journeys of Lent and Passover with the ways life’s difficult and beautiful moments shape our resilience, compassion, and faith. Through moving stories, sacred reflection, and inspiring music, we will consider how bitterness can be transformed into healing and sweetness through love and belonging.

Music led by Michael Stryker, with:
Larry Kohut — bass
Bill Overton — woodwinds
Greg Artry — drums
Cheryl Wilson — vocals
