"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar. We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.
We will demonstrate the real life application of scripture, tradition, and reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs, hurts, joys, and interests."

Hymn of Promise
Natalie Sleeth
In the bulb there is a flower; in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise; butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter there’s a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.
There’s a song in every silence, seeking word and melody;
there’s a dawn in every darkness, bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future; what it holds a mystery,
unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.
In our end is our beginning, in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing; in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection; at the last a victory,
unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see.

The Women's Bible Study group is studying Barbara Brown Taylor’s book An Altar in the World.
An Altar in the World is a marvelous read and provokes thought for growing and sharing discussion. Please join us in the search for discovering the many opportunities God has provided for worshiping Him.
The usual dates are 1st and 3rd Thursdays at 5:30 p.m.; however, due to Spring Break and Holy Week, we will be meeting on Thursday, April 21 and 28 and resume 1st and 3rd Thursdays in May.
All ladies of the church are welcome!

We are grateful for the beautiful flower arrangements at the altar each Sunday. These arrangements are coordinated by the Parish Flower Guild and funded by donations in memorial, honor, or thanksgiving for a life event or friends and relatives of Resurrection. The cost for both flower arrangements is $75. Sunday flowers may be shared. Your gift of flowers will be acknowledged in the Sunday service bulletin. Click this link to sign up for your Sunday or call the parish office.
