Good Friday Service of Shadows, 6 pm Don't leave the kids behind on Good Friday! We have a meaningful service for them too. Your children (K-3) are invited to participate in a Good Friday event specially crafted to enrich their understanding of the meaning of Good Friday and many of the emotions surrounding it. This event will walk them through a modified Tenebrae service, helping them to understand the sorrow and loss of the cross, while also leaving them with a sense of hope and anticipation for Easter morning. The experience is designed for students from K-3, but we want you to know that there will be some brief moments of darkness as part of the program. We look forward to your children joining us for this time of mourning and hope. Please RSVP in the comments so that we know how many children to plan for. There will be childcare for infants - preschoolers as well.

All evening activities are cancelled due to weather tonight.

Thanks to the crews working in hard conditions, we have power again! Services as usual tomorrow!

The church will be closed Wednesday and there will be no evening activities. Be safe and check on neighbors!

The office will be closed today, Monday, January 28 due to weather.
