"Faith That Feeds"
We believe that faith should feed and nurture our spirits.
We believe also that faith should lead us to feed people
in the many different ways they hunger,
both physically and spiritually.

Hybrid Sunday Worship

The Eighteenth Sunday After Pentecost

September 22, 2024

Today we hear James warn against selfish ambition, while the disciples quarrel over which one of them is the greatest. Jesus tells them the way to be great is to serve. Then, to make it concrete, he puts in front of them a flesh-and-blood child. We are called to welcome the children God puts in front of us, to make room for them in daily interaction, and to give them a place of honor in the assembly.

Feeding Our Faith – Sundays 9 am – 10 am

Sunday, September 22, 2024

Gatherings include viewing short videos and lively discussions. You can participate either in-person or via Zoom.


Join our Adult Discussion Class at 9 am in-person in Fellowship Hall or on Zoom by clicking the button below. This Fall we are delving into the issue of Climate Justice and share how God is calling us to be co-creators of a blessed tomorrow. We will again use videos to grease the wheels of our discussion. On Sundays 9/22 & 9/29, we’ll feature Climate Scientist Katherine Hayhoe. Her 2021 book, Saving Us, is readily available at the library, and will greatly enhance our learning about how to effectively talk about it. Nicolai Schousboe will lead the discussions while Pr. Mark is away.
