Looking for a few precious moments of peace and perspective in your busy week? We hold worship services each Sunday at 10:30am.
Our worship ministry has many components that are updated each week. We encourage you to "mix and match" the pieces to find out what works best for you.

We are happy to welcome Rev. Dr. Joshua Lawrence, our Minister of Worship & Congregational Life, back from vacation this week! On Sunday, August 16th, he will preach a sermon entitled “Torn and Mended” based on this week's Scripture readings. Our Old Testament reading will be a continuation of the familiar story from Genesis. Jess Huber will read Genesis 45: 1-15. Our Gospel reading will be Matthew 15: 10-20.

Minister of Music, Chris Fischer is on vacation this week, and we are grateful to welcome Sydney Brouillard-Coyle to lead our music on Sunday. Sydney will open the service by leading the congregation in MV #154 "Deep in Our Hearts." This hymn will serve as both Gathering and Candle Lighting Music. This week's Musical Reflection will be "You Raise Me Up" arranged by Albert Mendoza and our Musical Offering will be a piece called "Monarchs" by Martha Hill Duncan. Both of these anthems will be played by Sydney on piano. Ney will close the service with Constantino Carrara's arrangement of "This Is Me" from 'The Greatest Showman.' In addition to our Gathering Music, the congregation will be invited to sing VU #606 "In Christ There Is No East or West," VU #556 "Would You Bless Our Homes and Families" and MV #145 "Draw the Circle Wide."

"Deep Dive" provides an audio commentary on the most recent Sunday message. Listen to a thoughtful discussion by using this link and once there, go to the STUDIO section and open the commentary link there. (Hint: If you're using a handheld device, be patient. After you hit the "play" icon it takes a couple of minutes for the audio to load before it starts playing.)
"PostScript," is "taking a sabbatical" for a few weeks. Watch for its return following the Sept. 13 Homecoming Service.
Ready for a break from all your screen time? Why not join either the Fall or Winter/Spring session of Bible Study on Thursdays at 11am? It's much more than Bible Study, though. We discuss the message of the Bible through the lens of a book or commentary. Contact the church office for details. We'd love to see you in person!
