OUTDOOR WORSHIP OPPORTUNITY IS SCHEDULED FOR JULY 11
While we’re waiting for authorization to regather inside the church for worship, a team of staff and lay leaders is working to get us ready for outdoor worship opportunities. Our first Outdoor Worship Service is scheduled for Saturday, July 11, at 5 PM, weather permitting.

We will share specific details next week and will also open an RSVP link in Realm. Stay tuned!

Please keep this process in your prayers as we work to make this a safe and meaningful opportunity. We will continue to stream worship online for those who are guarding their health closely.
Your church is seeking to learn, pray, and act for our part in addressing racism and racial reconciliation. We do this as a constituent part of participating in God’s mission to restore all people to unity with God and one another in Christ. We hope you will join us as we journey together.
OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN
Watch "Sacred Ground," a film-based dialogue series on Race and Faith. This sensitive, prayerful resource creates space for difficult but respectful and transformative dialogue on race and racism. MORE
