Congregational Meeting September 26 |
|
The Session has called a Congregational Meeting for Sunday, September 26th, directly following the worship service, in order to recommend changes to our current leadership structure. In 2018, we adjusted the structure of our Deacon Committees; but since then, we have recognized the need to make other slight adjustments, as well as align our Session to match with these changes. Read more HERE for the proposed changes. |

New Sermon Series - "It's Complicated"
Description: When it comes to living in faithfulness to God, turns out we are all giraffes on roller skates. Even the best of us: Abraham, Moses, Mary, John the Baptist. All are complex people living in a complex world who find themselves one day gliding and the next stumbling. They sincerely followed God, that’s what made them the faithful, effective leaders they were. Yet at times they are overtaken by fear, anger, lust, or mistrust and they sin. And sin always has consequences. Faithfulness: it’s complicated. Read more HERE
