We believe that worship is a gift of the Holy Spirit where we encounter Jesus Christ through Holy Communion, Holy Baptism, and preaching of the Word. In our worship we hear the Good News of God’s grace through Jesus Christ. Through our words and music we are reminded that we are connected to a larger community of believers.

Adult Forum at 10:30 a.m.: Faith Out Loud: Talking About What Matters Most
“Through thick and thin, keep your hearts at attention, in adoration
before Christ, your Master. Be ready to speak up and tell anyone who
asks why you’re living the way you are”
(I Peter 3:14-15, The Message, Eugene Peterson).
How do I talk about my faith with someone? Is there a right way and a wrong way? We are called to witness to our faith with our whole being, including our words. Are you ready to speak up about how God makes a difference in your daily life, or a time when you experienced grace? Listen in on authentic and humble conversations as people were asked to share their stories about experiencing God, through our Summer Sundays 10:30 a.m. Adult Education Series Faith Out Loud: Talking About What Matters Most. As we hear others tell their stories of faith, we’ll reflect on our experiences too, so that we’ll be ready whenever opportunities open to share our faith with others. Sundays, June 8-August 24 at 10:30 a.m. Co-led by Pastor Durk Peterson and Pastor Christine Chiles. To register, e-mail Pastor Chiles
