Land, Identity, and Faith webinar
You're invited to join in an online conversation about decolonization from South Africa, Philippines, Israel/Palestine, and North America.
Saturday, December 21, 7:00pm: Longest Night Service. Scripture, music, and quiet meditation to remember losses, acknowledge grief, and pray for light and hope. This service recognizes that for some the Christmas season may be a time of sadness rather than "tidings of good cheer".
Sunday, December 22, 9:30am: Christmas Fellowship and Hymn Sing. Join us for hot chocolate and fellowship followed by a hymn sing in the sanctuary. For the hymn sing, we’ll be sitting in parts (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) for easier 4-part harmony singing. Zoom participants can join in at 10:35 to sing a few carols.
Sunday, December 22, 10:45am: Worship service.
Tuesday, December 24, 7:00pm: Christmas Eve service. Come hear the Christmas Story told through word and song.
Wednesday, December 25, 10:45am: Christmas Day service. Join your church family as we open the gifts of Christmas!

We are called to be stewards of the environment, and this includes reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. By purchasing a solar PV system, we can reduce the amount of emissions we release from our electricity consumption. This will reduce air pollution and improve air quality, slow the effects of climate change, and reduce our reliance on a diminishing supply of fossil fuels. Installation is complete and we are now connected to the grid!
Check out how we're doing!
We are worshipping with a hybrid model that includes both in person and Zoom options.
