Rain Policy:

If it rains at 6:00 p.m., we will relocate to the Jaycee/Wood Shelter, which is just across the street from the Stone Shelter, where we picnic. Please bring a foldable chair and dress warmly if it is cold! But please know that it frequently rains in town and is fine in Flagstaff, or a storm can swiftly pass by, leaving us able to have our service.
