Currently the Church Campus is closed.  We are joining together weekly to learn about our faith and others, share some spirituality, and then have a time to socialize and support each other.  See below for details.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This Sunday, November 29th we will not be holding our RE Zoom meeting but we will pick back-up on December 3rd at 10:20am when we start our month of Winter Holidays!  Our first lesson will be on Advent and the meaning of Christmas.

Our Church is in alignment with the Black Lives Matter movement.  We encourage all parents to talk to your children about racism and what the protests are all about.  Below are some resources you can use to start the conversation or for you to learn more.
