Welcome to Worship
Why do we worship?
We worship to gather as a community of believers, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, to witness to one another about how the Holy Spirit is working in our lives, and to be renewed for the work of God. All are welcome and we are glad you are here today.

For your discernment: What does your life say about the love of God? When people see you-your kindness, your courage, your presence -what do they come to believe about Jesus?

We gather for worship Sunday mornings… 10:00 a.m. In-Person and online for the summer season.

Children are welcome and wanted in worship. As a church family, we love the wiggles and noises they bring, and we celebrate them as a gift from God.

Gendered and single stall/family restrooms are located between the coat racks and the upper side of the ramp at the parking lot entrance. Changing tables are in the family restroom and the nursery. The sanctuary is also equipped with a hearing loop.
