Prayers, Birthdays, + Anniversaries

In order to keep your information private while spreading word of the work we do, we’ll remove prayer requests, birthdays, and anniversaries from the version that will appear publicly. Instead, we’ll send a separate “private” weekly email dedicated to those important elements of caring for one another, which will not be published on the website. Thank you for your patience as we continue to improve how we communicate with you, our congregation, and the greater community.
