Pentecost this Week
This Sunday, June 8th, is Pentecost, so we would love for you to join us as we celebrate the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We invite you to wear red, if you would like, and stick around after worship to help us plant some geraniums in the church flower beds!

Help Plant the Church Flower Beds this Sunday
We're planting flowers around the church this Sunday, June 8th. Dress down and stick around to help set out plants, dig, plant, or water before or after you attend church (planting will occur 9:30-10:00 AM and 11:00 AM-12:00 PM). Many hands make light work and happy hearts as we add beauty to our downtown community.

Summer Worship Schedule
Please remember that we have moved to our summer worship schedule, with one service each week, with communion, at 10:00 AM. We feel that this will be a great way for us to be together in a different way during the summer months, and continue to meet people and make new relationships. We will resume our two-service schedule on Sunday, August 24th.
