We'll sing the Christmas Carols. We'll hear the Christmas Story. We'll share in Silent Night by candle light.

Be a part of our church family as we celebrate the reason for this season, together.

First Sunday of Advent + Friendsgiving Potluck
Dec

First Sunday of Advent + Friendsgiving Potluck

Worship with us for the First Sunday of Advent and stay after for our First Annual Friendsgiving Potluck!

*Bring a dish to share as you're able to do so! Message this page if you have any questions. There's a place for you.*

Our worship series this December is “Words for the Beginning: Advent Reminders for New Seasons”.

Advent is a season of endings and beginnings. As the calendar year comes to a close, a new church year begins … Christ’s birth ushers us into new ways of living and loving; even as the world spins madly on.

It is a season of endings and beginnings ... but affirmations from the Christmas story still hold true today. What will the stories of Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, and Wise Men remind us of this December and beyond?

Cliché Christianity: A Worship Series
Nov

Cliché Christianity: A Worship Series

Have you ever said something that you wish you hadn't said when someone shared something serious with you?

We.all.have. When people share their pain with us, we often don't know what to say or do.

Followers of Jesus tend to turn to Christian Cliches in these moments, and in place of having something better to offer, we share phrases and ideas that can cause more harm than help. In the Old Testament, the Prophet Job gets stuck with a certain group of friends, who when they have nothing to say that’s helpful, usually say too much as Job languishes in the hardest of circumstances.

Knowing that we can’t go back, that once something is said it can’t be un-said, what should Christians say and do in order to avoid Cliche Christianity?

Using the Book of Job as a conversation partner in worship during the month of November, we’ll explore the meanings behind some of the things Christians say:

“Everything happens for a reason.”

“God helps those who help themselves.”

“God needed another angel.”

“Love the sinner, hate the sin.”

And, maybe, we’ll find better things to offer our friends, family, and community members, when they really need us to be the people of Jesus.

Join the conversation with us every Sunday at 10:30am!

Community Worship: Childish Ways (Communion Sunday)
Oct
6

Community Worship: Childish Ways (Communion Sunday)

At one point in Jesus’ ministry, he was asked to resolve a conflict among his disciples who asked him, “Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”

In answer, he called a child over to him and said, “I assure you that if you don’t turn your lives around and become like this little child, you will definitely not enter the kingdom of heaven. Those who humble themselves like this little child will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.”

In culture, in the time of Jesus and now, we don’t think of children as leaders. They are to be taught, not to teach. To listen, not to speak. To respect, not be respected.

Yet, Jesus asks us to look to children to know more about the Kingdom of Heaven. Maybe there’s more to childish ways than we’ve thought. In this worship series we’ll look for inspiration in the stories of several children of the Bible who offer of themselves to care for others, serve the helpless, and show us how to live into God’s Kingdom now.

9/8 - The Fierceness of Miriam

9/15 - The Curiosity of Samuel

9/22 - The Bravery of David

9/29 - The Belief of Mary

10/6 - The Wisdom of Jesus

See you Sunday!

At our church, and any United Methodist Church, communion is open to anyone who comes through the door, so it's open to you!

During the month of May, we're emphasizing our call to champion children and youth. How do we do that? For starters, we'll look to the Bible for a few stories of children who demonstrated faithfulness and generosity in ways that challenged the adults around them. On May 5, we'll read the story of of a nameless child, whose impact was so incredible, that their story was shared in all four gospels of the New Testament.

And secondly, we're going to start planning for Vacation Bible School - be on the look out for ways to help and register

Community Ash Wednesday Worship

Ash Wednesday begins the Season of Lent, a period of time in the Spring when Christians turn to God in expectation of Easter Sunday. On Ash Wednesday, we recognize both bodies may be mortal, but that our souls are made to live forever with our Creator. We do that by confessing our sins and receiving the sign of the cross on our foreheads in ashes.

You are invited to worship with us on 2/14 at 6pm as we observe this holy night set apart for holy encounters with God.
