With the increase of cases of COVID-19 in our area and region, leadership of both congregations have decided to suspend in-person worship, as well as suspending all in-person meetings (both at the church and at residences) until further notice. This decision was not made lightly, and we will continue to monitor things and re-evaluate. We will update the congregation via newsletter, weekly e-news, and website when changes to this plan have been made. Please join us online during this time, and stay healthy!

Online Worship
Online Worship Resources can be found here for worship while we are not meeting for worship in person!
Remember that, even though we are not meeting in the church building, the church is still alive and present and meeting, because YOU are the church!
The church is the body of Christ-its people-which is more than a building! It is all of you!

Worship for Sunday, January 17, 2021: 2nd Sunday after Epiphany
“Come and See” is the call today in our gospel reading. It is an invitation to all of God’s people, to come and see what Jesus is all about, and what God is up to in our lives and in our world. And, it calls us to go out into the world with God’s love for all people. All the baptized are called into God’s work, to go out and tell others to “come and see” what God is up to.
