On Sunday, we continue to honor our tradition of serving and giving by joining in our annual stewardship campaign in which all members are asked to consider how they will support the church in the coming year. Listen each week as different members of the congregation testify about the importance of the church in the life of their families.

We also have the joy of celebrating the sacrament of holy communion on Sunday. In the tradition of the United Methodist Church, the communion table is open to all, regardless of whether you are a member of this church or any church. Please join us.

Our in-person worship service in the sanctuary and the livestream begins at 9:30 am Sunday.

You are always welcome at this church!
