Worship Sneak Peek
July 10, 2022 at 10:00 am
Join us for worship this Sunday in person or online at 10:00. This week, we begin a 4 week series called, "Celebrate!" There is much in the world that prevents us from wanting to celebrate. When we come together to lift up what is good and Godly in our lives however, we proclaim that evil, injustice, and oppression do not have the final say in this life or the next! So, we will celebrate what is good, and we will begin by focusing on Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 12 which highlight and celebrate the diversity of the Body of Christ. As the church, we are called to celebrate the diverse ways God is reflected in each and every person. Hope to see you there!
Reminder: We have resumed in-person worship and continue to live-stream the service on our website and YouTube channel.

Toddler & Baby Friendly Section in the Sanctuary-
At UMCRB, there are many ways we welcome young people to our church. One of the elements of UMCRB is the value the church places on young people and ways in which they are welcomed into fellowship, service and worship. Check out our new toddler friendly section in the back of the Sanctuary. This section is for very young children with parent supervision, only. The soft space is filled with toys, books and space for you and your babies during worship on Sundays.
