Outdoor Worship Service

(The service will also be live-streamed on Facebook)
We won’t have an 11:00 am service on October 25th.
Everyone is encouraged to bring a lawn chair, wear a mask, and print the worship outline (link below). Holy Communion will be served and distributed to those sitting in the church-yard and parking lot. There will be no Sunday school, no nursery, and no playground access. A Children’s Time will be offered, but will have special instructions for observing distance.
Children will have the option to attend an outdoor, socially-distanced Sunday school class during the service.
PARKING:
If you plan on sitting in the courtyard, please park in the parking lot or school parking lot (rather than in front of the church or on the street). Those needing to sit in their vehicles and listen from there may park in front of the church on West Drive.

FALLSermon Series
“No Fair!”
In the trials of one family, we find hope for our own.
Summer is a time for family reunions. For some of us, family reunions are fun and fulfilling. For others of us, they are uncomfortable or even painful. We all have some dysfunction in our families. We all have stories that we’d rather not tell. In the stories of Genesis, we discover God’s chosen family – those first generations of Israel – had struggles, secrets, sibling rivalries, and even threats of murder. As we explore these rich and ancient stories, we see how God works through and in spite of family dysfunction to bring about God’s purposes for the world, and we find hope for God’s presence and movement in our own families.
