Worship With Us
Join us for worship this Sunday at 10am!

We have spent the summer focusing on the Fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5) as we, like the early Christian church, need to be reminded again and again about how to be more connected with the Holy and more faithful and effective in creating, recreating, sustaining self-control, joy, patience, kindness, peace, gentleness, generosity, love, faithfulness. Our scripture lessons for Sunday will be that fruity piece from Galatians and the story about the struggling woman in Luke 13:10-17. The sermon is entitled ‘Resiliency’.

As always, we invite you to bring family and friends with you.
