Worship Sunday
Join us for the Second Sunday of Advent. Our Commissioned Minister of Pastoral Care, Barbara Papagian, will lead the worship service at 10:00am in the Sanctuary. This week's sermon is titled "Sing it, Zechariah." The reading is from Luke 1:67-72.
Prior to the 10:00am service, please enjoy the new Time of Greeting ... meet new friends and share fond memories before worship begins.
Service of Prayer and Healing
Inspired by the Celtic Tradition, the roughly half-hour service will include music, readings, prayers and an opportunity to receive a “Laying on of Hands” blessing. Service will be held in the Chapel following the 10:00am worship service and fellowship, on the 2nd Sunday each month.
Blue Christmas Service
Holidays, especially Christmas, can be a painful time for some.
For those who are experiencing pain and loss, we want you to know that you are not alone. Join with others on Monday, December 10th at 7pm in the Chapel, as we acknowledge each other’s sadness, while affirming the life-giving presence of God.
Christmas Eve Services
4:30pm Family Christmas Service
