Join us in worship on this final weekend of summer in Michigan!
The Chancel Choir continues its vacation so Montana King and Amber Ohlsson will sing during Sunday’s offertory. We are so fortunate to have so many talented and generous people who are willing to share their musical gifts with us during the summer!
Our in-person worship service in the sanctuary and the livestream begin at 9:30 am Sunday.
You are always welcome at this church!
