Hear The Angels Sing

Join us throughout the four Sundays of Advent as we explore the divine messages that the angels delivered just prior to the birth of Jesus. We will hear how the angels shared messages of hope, peace, joy, and love to Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds. Join us for worship at 9am or 11am throughout the four Sundays before Christmas Eve.

In God’s Steps: Walking Together Toward Racial Justice

Join us on a journey of holy conversations on the challenging issues of race, justice, and community. The program begins January 7th with an opening dinner and includes a 6 week book study and concluding dinner on February 25th.
