Our church community gathers in services to reflect, observe, and celebrate the special seasons of the church calendar. The season Lent is a time to reflect in prayer and fasting and to be closer to God. This year Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, March 6, and lasts 40 days not counting Sundays.
Please consider joining us at our regular 10:00 am Sunday morning worship service. Children attend the beginning of the service with their family and then have the option of accompanying our Sunday School teachers to the classrooms where age appropriate activities are offered. For the very young we have a supervised nursery in the vestry. Mid-week study groups are often held. The church and Community Center are handicapped accessible. Use the Navigation menu on the left to learn about us and the special events and activities we offer. All Are Welcome!
