Worship and Worship Bulletins
New this Sunday:
We will be showing the livestream video outside the church in the parking lot by the office. Members and guests who do not have computers or internet access can park their cars or sit and watch the service. We will have chairs available if you would like to sit outside. Please observe social distancing and wear masks as we are following the King County health guidelines.
The worship bulletins that are sent out electronically on Saturday are printable from your home computers. When you receive the email, open it and press "ctrl p" on your keyboard and it will print.
On Thursday afternoons, we will place pre-printed bulletins in the Messiah Lending Library (the box pictured in this article). It is located on H street outside the kitchen. Please feel free to stop by and pick one up if you do not have a computer or printer at home.
Please contact Tia Monsen if you have any questions.

Messiah Finance Update
In May, Messiah received General Fund Income of $48,716.13. Our General Fund Expenses were $55,347.78. This resulted in a shortfall in our General fund of $6,631.65.
Although the shortfall was covered by funds from the government’s Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), these funds are of a limited duration and amount. Messiah continues to rely on the generous offerings of our members, friends, and neighbors. Especially during this time of pandemic, we can ensure a continued and robust ministry at Messiah through a regular pattern of giving to both Messiah’s General Fund and Community Needs Fund.
