Gatherings:
Sunday Worship
Every Sunday morning at 10:00 am we gather together in the church and through our live-stream to worship our amazing God. In worship we celebrate God’s goodness, grow as Jesus’ disciples, pray, and offer our lives and gifts to God’s service. Children of all ages are welcome to be part of worship services. We love the joy and energy (including the sounds!) kids of all ages bring to worship.
Children’s Sunday School
Kids in kindergarten through 5th grade are invited to be part of Sunday School on the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and maybe 5th Sundays of the month. On 3rd Sundays we celebrate communion and want our whole church family to be together. Children start out with their parents in worship and after the Time For Young Disciples walk with adults to our Fellowship Hall for Sunday School.
Nursery
Nursery care is provided for babies through age four. After the “Time for Young Disciples,” children will be invited to walk across the street with an adult for this special time.
Sunday Fellowship
After worship (around 11:00 am) we gather in our Fellowship Hall for coffee, treats, and conversation with good company. The 1st Sunday of the month our deacons host a potluck lunch. On the 3rd Sunday of the month we share a pancake breakfast.
Choir
Our choir practices the prelude at 9:30 am on Sunday mornings in the church. Everyone is welcome to be part of the choir.

Wednesday Night Bible Study
Join us every Wednesday at 6:30 pm for conversation and study. Depending on where the Spirit guides us we will spend time together reading a book that helps us grow in understanding the Bible or discipleship or we will work our way through a book of the Bible.
