Inspiring Video of the Week...
Amanda Gorman, a 22-year-old poet, read an original work at President Joe Biden’s inauguration on Jan. 20. After Biden was sworn in as the nation’s 46th president, Gorman read “The Hill We Climb,” building on a tradition of poets -- including Robert Frost, Maya Angelou, Elizabeth Alexander and Richard Blanco -- who have read for incoming Democratic presidents. Gorman is the youngest of these inaugural poets to offer her verse.
Watch with children!

Worship Technology Update
Thanks to the generosity of several families at Atonement, the sanctuary has completed a major technology upgrade! After months of waiting, weeks of installation and weeks of training, we now have the capacity to Live Stream Worship Online and use a projector and screen to enhance the worship experience!

Now all we need is YOU! The technology requires two people to run for each worship service. The training is easy and FUN! If you'd like to help enhance worship and provide Live Streaming to home-bound people, please contact Pastor Tim, or sign-up for the Worship Tech Team online.
