Fourth Sunday After Epiphany
"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar.
We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.
We will demonstrate the real life application of scripture, tradition, and
reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs,
hurts, joys, and interests."

This Sunday's Anthem:
A solo by Dolores Chandler
Heal Our Land
by Orrin Hatch and Janice Perry
Heal our land
Please grant us peace today
And strengthen all who lack the faith
To call on thee each day
Heal our land
And keep us safe and free
Watch over all who understand
The need for liberty
CHORUS
Heal our land, heal our land
And guide us with thy hand
Keep us ever on the path of liberty
Heal our land, heal our land
And help us understand
That we must put our trust in thee
If we would be free
Heal our land
Please help us find our way
For in thy word we find our strength
If we look up each day
Heal our land
And fill us with thy love
Keep us upon the path of truth
That comes from heaven above
Protect us by the power of thy love
And keep us one nation under God

Women's Bible Study
Thursday, February 2, 6:00 p.m.
We have begun our new Bible study,
Finding I Am
. We meet at
6:00 p.m.
on the first and third Thursdays at the church.
Due to construction, we may have to be flexible on our meeting place - this is a good thing! In this study, we will be discussing the 7 "I Am" statements from the Gospel of John. Our own Tera Johnston will be leading this study.
If you have any questions, please contact Tera, Patty Kidd or me. We will be glad to help.
We hope you all can make it and ... bring a friend! It's never too late to join us!
