Throughout Advent, our morning worship services will include Advent candles, readings, banners, and special messages. This year’s Advent theme is “PARABLES OF PROMISE”. Jesus says his parables are about the mysteries of the kingdom.

Let’s prepare our hearts together for this special season.

September is a month of milestone birthdays! Frank Gruppo turns 93 on the 16th, Beulah Beaver turns 101 on the 20th, and Evelyn Falk turns 98 on the 30th. Let’s remember these faithful friends with prayers, cards, and flowers.
Get the most out of the services by asking about our special listening devices. Pick up one in the back or see an usher for help. If yours isn’t working properly, don’t be bashful about raising your hand to ask for assistance.
