Discover Your 6 T’s — Discern Your Call to Serve
In the Episcopal Church, every person has gifts that can strengthen our parish and support the wellbeing of our neighbors in Palm Springs. The 6 T’s Survey helps you explore those gifts and connect with ministries where you can serve with purpose, joy, and impact.
