Thank You to everyone who helped with Family Promise hosting this past week! This ministry is incredibly important to the families who need a home in the midst of a difficult time. Thank you!

Our Roof Replacement is Underway!

11 months after the hailstorm, we are delighted to be getting our pitched roof surfaces replaced! We don't know exactly how long the process will take, so please walk and park carefully around the building for the next week.

Our flat roof replacement will be coming soon, too!

ABOVE: Day 1

BELOW: Day 2

We're inviting the whole congregation to take part in preparing our Lenten Soup Suppers!

If you have a favorite soup, we hope you'll share it!

If you can provide bread or drinks, that's great!

We'll also need assistance with setup and cleanup.

Our very own Raymond Zieverink is the “head bilge rat” and is bringing the program to us. We will gather at 11:30 am with lunch at noon followed by the program.
