Teenagers (rising 6th grade and up) are welcome and must have a parent/guardian accompany them on the trip. See Pastor Erin for more details. 

Come to worship on May 28th for our

Pentecost Celebration!

Wear red!

Sing happy birthday to the church!

(and have cake!)

We will be Pentecost People as we pray for our church and our world! We will hear about the creative activity of God through an experiential scripture reading and the word proclaimed!

RSVP by THIS FRIDAY!

This year we will be collecting for PCUSA's Special Pentecost Offering!

The Pentecost Offering unites us in a church-wide effort to support young people and inspire them to share their faith, ideas, and unique gifts with the church and the world.

40% of the Pentecost offering stays with our congregation to make an impact in the lives of young people within our own community. The remaining 60% is used to support children-at-risk, youth, and young adults through ministries of the Presbyterian Mission Agency.

Join us on Pentecost, May 28th as we give to nurture the faith of those who are the church to come!
