Christians Serving, Learning, and Loving
There are a lot of buds on the daffodils at the door of the church. Could it be that Spring is almost here? This month, there are many opportunities to connect with our church family and community. You can catch up on all the April information here.
Our Lenten journey is being shaped around our regular Sunday worship services, a few key practices that help us to focus on God, weekly readings through the book of Acts, questions from Paul’s instructions to the church in Ephesus (see Acts 19) that call us to action, and mid-week gatherings to listen and learn what God might be saying about all of this together.

On Sunday, February 9th during the Growing Connections hour, Pastor Craig will be sharing a few key findings from his doctoral research about leadership as a local theologian that are guiding us into and through a time of discernment about what it means to be the church and what this might look like in the emerging context of western culture.

read onJoin us, Christmas Eve, for a 5:00 pm Candlelight Worship Service with Milk and Cookies, our Moravian Lovefeast. Modeled after the Moravian Lovefeast (see more info below), our Christmas Eve Lovefeast is a special service when we share a simple meal together. Throughout the lovefeast, Christmas carols are played and sung. During the distribution of the lovefeast, the servers bring in trays of heart-shaped cookies wrapped in napkins and pass them down the pews. When they are finished, they come back in with small cups of chocolate milk. During the sharing of the lovefeast, you may offer words or gestures of Christ’s peace and love to one another as a sign of our unity in this household of ministry.
Forrest Frank recently wrote a song that expounds on our Advent theme “presents/presence” beautifully.
