Join us this Sunday for Traditional Worship at 9:30am or Informal Worship at 11:00am Our scripture texts are 1Kings 2:10-12; 3:3-14 and Psalm 111 with a sermon entitled Discernment. Solomon becomes King...He is young and inexperienced so he asks God for a discerning mind to acquire good judgement. How do we cultivate our spirit of discernment? What do you do when faced with choices that aren't clear cut?

Our Informal Worship Service went on location last Sunday... a Field Trip! We worshipped with our UCC siblings at Christ the King UCC in North County - 11370 Old Halls Ferry Rd, Florissant, MO 63033. We are grateful that John Dorhauer, newly called General Minister and President of our United Church of Christ, was the preacher. Pastor Traci Blackmon and the congregation embraced us! Experience John's powerful sermon here...
