New Sermon Series "Soul Feast"

The season of Lent, which helps us prepare for Easter, is, for many, a time of fasting. Now that Easter has come, we are going to break that fast with our new Sunday morning sermon series, "Soul Feast" through May 12 (with Confirmation Sunday occurring in the middle on April 21.) Our preachers will be sharing some meanings found in scripture as observed through events and experiences involving food. Bring your spiritual appetite and join us for worship to nourish your soul.

This Sunday, April 14  Rev. Jim Shirbroun is preaching and his sermon is titled "Behold the Lamb(s) of God."

 

Sunday School for all ages begins at 9:45 a.m. There is also a time of fellowship between the services in the Gathering Space.
