Congregation,

I want to share an important update regarding our Sunday morning worship schedule beginning August 10. As many of you know, Rev. Kathleen McMurray has been appointed to a new role by the Bishop. Because her move came so late in the appointment cycle, we will not be able to fill her position during this conference year.

After much thought and prayerful consideration, we have made the decision to adjust our Sunday morning schedule. Beginning August 10, we will no longer offer the 9:00 a.m. Modern Worship service. We will continue to have Classic Worship at 9:00 a.m., and both Classic and Modern Worship will be held concurrently at 11:00 a.m. I will be preaching twice a month in the Modern Worship service to ensure ongoing connection and continuity across our worshiping community.

While change is never easy, I am confident that this new schedule will allow us to continue offering meaningful and Spirit-filled worship experiences for everyone. Thank you for your grace, flexibility, and faithfulness as we move forward together.
