Worship
gives
power to life in Christ. In
our worship we discover both who we are and whose we
are. We express our reverence for and praise to God,
confess our sins, forgive ourselves and others, and receive God's forgiveness. Sunday
Morning Worship at 10:50 a.m. includes a children's sermon and children's
church. An Early
Worship Service at 8:40 a.m. is also offered. Communion is served at worship
on the first Sunday of each month and is open to everyone.
Throughout the year we observe special occasions such as Christmas
Eve, Ash
Wednesday, Holy
Week, Boy
and Girl Scouts' Sundays, and All
Saints Sunday
