Oasis Service - This Sunday at 4:00 pm
SUNDAY, May 26 at 4 pm in St. Andrew’s Chapel.
If you are yearning
for a quiet place, removed from the hubbub and busyness of life where you can be close to God, come to a new service we are calling Oasis, one hour of reflection and silent prayer.
|
|
Sunday, June 2 at 10 am in the Chapel. This opportunity comes between Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Memorial Day and within the Easter Season. Scriptures, reflective music, making of a spring bouquet, and remembering with a name and a remembrance is a good way of giving thanks for the blessings that your loved one gave throughout their life time. We want to honor them and the relationship and love you shared with them. Please come to this wonderfully comforting and uplifting 30 minute service.
