Front Porch Worship
Every Sunday at 9am beginning September 6 (in addition to online worship)
Bring a comfortable lawn chair and join us under the shade tree in front of the church on Sundays. Beginning on the first Sunday of September, we will be holding a short, simple worship service each Sunday with prayer, Scripture, and communion.
We will social distance and wear masks for safety. Please note, our regular online service will still be our primary service every Sunday and posted on Facebook and YouTube as usual. Stay home, worship online, and stay safe if you need to – but come be fed on the church lawn if you’re feeling hungry and ready for that.

Food Drive and Labyrinth Walk
Saturday, September 26th
8am to 8pm
Come experience the labyrinth, a walking prayer path.
We will set it up in the back parking lot and make it our goal to outline the entire prayer circle with food for the Blessing Box as we go through the day. Stop by and pray or give (or both!)
We will draw the labyrinth in chalk on the back parking lot and outline with glass brick. If you would like to help with the set up on Friday, September 26, please contact Pastor Stella at [email protected]
