May COVID-19 UPDATE We have Sunday morning services at 8:30 and 10. Our Sunday school students are welcome to attend the early service and then they leave before the Gospel reading for classroom study activities.
Our worship services include Holy Communion and live music and singing. Communion is shared using sealed individual kits that contain the host and a small glass of grape juice. Gluten-free host is also available again. Our choir sings at the early service on the first and third Sundays of the month and at the late service all other Sundays. MASKS ARE
STILL REQUIRED FOR ALL.
