"Get Rich: Generosity"
Due to technical difficulties today's Worship Service did not live stream in its entirety. The complete service has been uploaded and can be viewed using the link below.
The first Sunday in October is designated as World Communion Sunday, which celebrates our oneness in Christ with all our brothers and sisters around the world. Today, during worship, we will receive Holy Communion. If you are worshipping with us virtually, we invite you to participate using common bread and juice.
Today is Dedication Sunday! A time for the dedication of our gifts to the work of the church and building the Kingdom. Please bring your 2022 pledge for the dedication of gifts. These will be collected during worship.
