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.
WORSHIP UPDATE

On Sunday, August 23rd, we invite you to join with Rev. Dr. Joshua Lawrence, our Minister of Worship & Congregational Life, for worship. He will preach a sermon entitled “Creation Calls” based on this week's Scripture readings. David Girvan will read our first Scripture, Exodus 1:8 – 2:10. Sunday's Gospel reading is Matthew 16: 13-20.

Minister of Music, Chris Fischer will invite the congregation to help open the service with TLUS #157 "Where the Green Will Rise Again." This hymn will serve as both Gathering and Candle Lighting Music. We are grateful to our bass-baritone soloist, Chad Louwerse for sharing his musical gifts with us this week. Chad will sing Harry Burleigh's arrangement of "Go Down, Moses" for our Musical Reflection and Moses Hogan's arrangement of "He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands" for the Musical Offering. Sunday's congregational hymns will be VU #307 "Touch the Earth Lightly," MV #135 "Called by Earth and Sky" and VU #651 "Guide Me, O Thou Great and Holy." Chris will close the service from the organ with an arrangement of this final hymn tune by Paul Manz.

GROW YOUR FAITH! Listen to recent sermons on your portable device. You can take us with you to your workout, on your daily commute, or whenever and wherever you have some personal time.
"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!
