Ahead of Independence Day, we will hear a variety of patriotic music during worship service on Sunday.
As the Chancel Choir enjoys its summer break, Charlie van Becelaere will provide special music during the offertory.
Our in-person worship service in the sanctuary and the livestream begin at 9:30 am Sunday.
You are always welcome at this church!
