Welcome! We're a small church doing BIG things with the help of God!

We believe that God loves, values and embraces each person as a beloved child. Therefore, we welcome people of every age, size, color, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, ability and challenge. We welcome people from all faith traditions, those with doubts, and those with no sense of faith at all. We also commit ourselves to the pursuit of environmental, economic, social and racial justice.

Lenten Holden Evening Prayer with Character Dramas

Wednesday nights beginning February 21st at 7:00 PM we will gather in the small Chapel (turn left at the end of the main hall) for Holden Evening Prayer and dramatic portrayals of key New Testament characters. Our cast members are working hard to prepare--so please come and support them!  You'll find the chapel is an especially lovely intimate setting with wonderful acoustics for our singing. We will also live stream the service on Zoom using the same link, ID & password we use for Sunday mornings for those who cannot attend in person. 

Making Connections
The Green Team

THE GREEN TEAM

We believe that caring for creation in all its uniqueness and inclusiveness is embedded in our fundamental character as a faith community.  Everyone is part of the Green Team, in different ways and at different levels. 

“Humans, in service to God, have special roles on behalf of the whole creation.  Made in the image of God, we are called to care for the earth as God cares for the earth.” (ELCA, “Caring for Creation:  Vision, Hope, and Justice,” 1993)

Scripture

BOOK OF FAITH

Open Scripture, Join the Conversation

Reading through the Bible together and exploring it in conversation. It will take us 3 years to complete the journey, but you are welcome to join us for a single time, a season, or walk with us from Genesis to Revelation.  The goal is to read 6 chapters each week at home and then share our impressions and questions on Sunday.  If we don't get our reading done ahead of time it's no big deal. Grace abounds!  Informal moderators keep the conversation rolling as we explore and discover together.

Sundays from 9:15 - 10:15 AM in the conference room on the main floor.

Handbell Choir

HANDBELLS

Ringing out under the direction of Pat Latshaw, the handbell choir welcomes you to join us as we create beautiful music. We perform roughly once a month at the 8:00am and 10:30am Sunday worship services.  REHEARSALS ARE WEDNESDAYS AT 6:30 PM

 

Men's Breakfast Group

MEN'S BREAKFAST GROUP

"What is the secret to getting along with others—teasing and talking politics and faith, while remaining friends? You won't find the answer in mainstream media, but you might find some answers with old men who drink coffee..."-- Rev. Lee Yates 

Our Saturday Morning Men's Group would be a great place to try that out!  Join us on the 2nd Saturday of each month at 8:00 a.m. at the Price Chopper (103rd & State Line). Walk ins welcome.

Quilt Group

QUILT GROUP

We're doing what we love and living out our faith in the process. 

Each quilt is a way of reaching out and touching someone else someplace else with God's protection and love.

Join us the 4th Tuesday of the month (January through November) from 9:00am - 2:30pm--and bring a sack lunch and sewing supplies. We work and talk...And eat and talk...and talk...and talk... and create as many as 70 quilts per year!

PRAY

CONNECTING WITH GOD

“Pray, and let God worry.” — Martin Luther

Live Generously

LIVE GENEROUSLY

"And he would answer and say to them, "The man who has two tunics is to share with him who has none; and he who has food is to do likewise."  Luke 3:11

By making a gift today you can be a part of God's amazing grace: feeding the hungry, seeking justice for workers denied their wages, caring for the earth, sewing quilts for the poor, and helping people meet God, practice community, serve Christ by serving others, and live generously. We are a registered 501(c)3 organization and all gifts are tax deductible.

We could not do this work without the generosity of our members and friends.
