Join us Saturdays at 5:30PM in person or online for our series on Peter’s spiritual steps.
STARTING SATURDAY - March 15th
During the season of Lent we will spend 15 minutes after service to share some practices we can apply in our daily lives to connect with God. Let's learn from one another ways in which we can grow healthier spiritually.
Interested in taking that next step Spiritually?
We invite you to stick around in the Fellowship Hall right after service to join us in this conversation. Whether this is your first step, or you have been on this journey with God for miles, we all have something to learn and share with each other.
Join us on Maundy Thursday, April 17, to remember Jesus’ last night with his disciples. We will share some elements of a traditional Passover meal, reflect on Jesus' teaching to serve one another, and enjoy a full dinner together. Kids are welcome. Childcare will be available for kids under 4.
Thursday 6:15 Fellowship Hall.
Join us on Saturday, April 19 for our Easter worship service at 5:30PM in the Fellowship Hall. If you’re interested in being baptized during this service, please fill out this form.
Contemplative Worship service is crafted to give you the time and space to be still, quiet, and receptive to God’s transforming presence. The services offer extended times of stillness, Scripture readings, meditative music, sacred reading, silence, and Holy Communion. Sundays at 6pm in the Chapel through April 6th.
Join us for a midweek break! Enjoy dinner and discussion while the kids have a fun program of their own. Topics alternate between book studies and Bible Studies. You can jump in at any time. There will always be small group discussions and time to develop friendships. This is a great way to plug into the community. We typically take a break from meeting on holiday weeks, other than that, we will be there. Hope you can join us! (Nursery care available)
