Worship
Worship is at the heart of any Christian community.
We gather together to give thanks to God for the gifts of life and grace,
for the freedom to gather together in praise and worship of God's holy name.
WORSHIP TIMES
We open for in-person worship at 11 a.m. every Sunday with the following protocols in place:
- Face masks are now optional for fully vaccinated individuals in worship and on the church campus.
- Face masks are still required for those who have not been fully vaccinated.
- Registration is no longer required to attend worship.
- All pews will be open for seating with the exception of the balcony which will remain closed.
- Please sign and pass the attendance pads.
- The offering plates will be passed during the offertory.
- Gordon Hall will be set-up for those who are more comfortable under the previous protocols of greater social distancing and mask wearing.
- We will continue with prepackaged communion for the foreseeable future.

Prayer of Belief
Lord Jesus Christ, I admit I am weaker and more sinful than I ever before believed, but, through you, I am more loved and accepted than I ever dared hope. I thank you for paying my debt, bearing my punishment and offering forgiveness. I turn from my sins and receive you as Savior. Amen. (If you are saying this prayer for the first time today, please let us know at 378-1527.)
