GATHER!
Here are the ways we worship & join in fellowship together.
How wonderful to worship together in our sanctuary!

Worship Schedule
10 am in the Sanctuary or on Facebook Live.
This week’s scripture lesson is:
Luke 14: 1, 7-14
Missed Church on Sunday? Want to hear the sermon again? Check out any sermons you missed here!
At this time, masks are optional; however, let us be mindful of the needs of those around us. May we respect and love one another whether wearing a mask or going without. In the Sanctuary if someone is wearing a mask, please leave some space if you are not wearing one.
As Matthew 7:12 says, "Treat others as you would want to be treated."
Thank you for living in Christian love with one another!
