Weekly Update

Sunday Service

Easter Sunday:

More is Possible

led by Rev. Laurel Gray

On this Easter Sunday, we'll tell the age old story of new life entering into impossible places. So often, and understandably, Easter is synonymous with spring and further meaning gets lost in the bunnies and candy grass. This Sunday, we'll wonder what the story means when we don't equate it with springtime. New life and new possibilities, after all, are not limited by season.

This service will be held in our sanctuary and on Zoom.

COVID Update

We have a vote on the Covid policies! We're continuing our mask mandate for Sunday services and have decided to allow congregational singing during the service.
