Worship Information
Sunday Worship 9:30 AM
Sunday School 11:00 AM
The congregation gathers each Sunday morning to sing, to hear God's
Word, to pray for those in need, and to celebrate the Lord's Supper
(Holy Communion). All baptized persons are welcome to receive Christ's
real presence in the gifts of bread and wine. Through these gifts
God nourishes faith, forgives our sins, and calls us to be witnesses
to the gospel. After worship there is a time of fellowship with coffee,
juice, and various snacks.
Special Worship during the year includes:
Christmas Eve (7:00 PM)
We gather on this night to celebrate Savior's birth. This family focused worship includes activities for children and special music. We conclude the evening with Holy Communion and singing "Silent Night" by candelight.
Ash
Wednesday (7:30 PM)
We come together this evening to acknowledge and affirm the greatest
mystery of all - death. It is only by dying to our interests and
our isolated selves that we are capable of living a more abundant
life in Christ. Those in attendance are invited to receive
a cross-shaped mark of ashes on their foreheads as a solemn,
public reminder of our mortality. And, we also celebrate our
new life with Christ in the Lord's Supper.
Sunday Evenings during Lent (5:00-6:30
PM)
Bring your own sandwich and enjoy soup provided by the Fellowship
Ministry. After sharing a meal together we gather for songs, bible
study, and prayer. This special gathering provides additional time
for reflection and meditation during the 40 days of Lent.
Maundy
Thursday/Good Friday (7:30 PM)
We gather on this night to celebrate Jesus' "new commandment" to "love
one another," spoken at his Last Supper where he washed the
disciples' feet. On this night we move from the celebration of the
Lord's Supper to the trial, death, and crucifixion of Jesus. We close
the service by removing all the appointed decorations from the building
in remembrance of Jesus, who was stripped, mocked, and crucified
on our behalf.

Easter Sunday Celebration (6:30 AM)
We gather as the sun is rising to celebrate with joy the message "He
is risen indeed!" This day celebrates the victory of Jesus over
death, the defeat of Satan, and the promise of new life given to
all those who believe. This day initiates the Easter season's 50
days.
