All hands on deck...

We need all hands on deck to help set up for our 100 Year Anniversary service and luncheon! We are meeting Saturday starting at 10AM in Fellowship Hall and will work until mission completed! Many hands make light work. Please come and help.

Steeple Lighting

As part of our 100 Year Anniversary celebrations our steeple is going to be lit for the first time in many many years! We’ll meet in the Memorial Prayer Garden, have a brief “Service of Light” by Pastor Kate, and light the steeple. Come and celebrate this really bright part of our church and history. Sunday, April 21st, 7:30PM.

Here's what's happening with WOW...
