June 10, 2026

This coming Sunday, June 10th, 2026 will be the 3rd Sunday after Pentecost.

Our Scripture Reading will be Matthew 9.35-10.8

and the Sermon will be titled, Not Running Low on Love.

We share with deep sadness that our beloved member, Lois Brown, entered into eternal life on June 8, 2026, at the age of 97 years old. We extend our heartfelt sympathies to her family as they grieve her loss and celebrate

her long, faithful life.

A service of remembrance will be held in our sanctuary on Saturday, June 20. 2026 at 10 AM, with internment in the columbarium immediately following the service.

May God's comfort surround all who loved her, and may her memory be a blessing.

Discovery Music

This coming week our Discovery Band's song will follow our Affirmation of Faith. The first song will be Chainbreaker, one we have done before but not since last July. Chainbreaker is a reminder that Jesus IS our chain -breaker. He frees us from sin, addiction, and fear. He has the power to give weary hearts real hope and a fresh start.

After the Scripture Reading, they will sing a beautiful song by Michael W. Smith, Draw Me Close to You. This song is like a personal prayer and confirms that being close to God is the deepest need of our soul. Just click on the buttons below to listen.The band hopes you will join in singing with them! It makes such a difference!

The Senior Youth lock-in, scheduled for this coming Friday night has been cancelled, due

The Christian History 101 group project was to clean a number of tombstones at Old City Cemetery under the guidance of its historian, Mark Day. He also took us on a behind-the-scenes tour of the artifacts in the cemetery's library. Here's a photo.

Welcome Center on Sunday Mornings!

We are seeking volunteers to help with our Sunday morning hospitality. On Sunday mornings, snacks, coffee, and water are available in the Welcome Center before each service. Pre-packaged snacks are readily available and should be supplemented with fresh items you can easily pick up at your local grocery store. Folks who sign up need to have the Welcome Center ready at 8:45 and clean up after the worship service. More volunteers are needed to buy and put out the snacks on Sunday mornings, make the coffee, and clean up after the worship service (typically takes 15 minutes). More specific directions will be posted in the hospitality kitchen off the narthex. If you can help with hospitality this way, please click the link below.
