Journey to the Cross

Join us on Good Friday, April 7th for a time of reflection.

Come in any time between 2:00PM and 8:00PM to walk through the journey to the cross. Each station contains scripture, questions to meditate on, and a brief activity to guide you through Jesus’ journey.

This powerful event holds space for us to connect with God on a deeper level, empathize with hardships Jesus endured, and connect His crucifixion with the greater creation story.

Christmas Eve Service

Join us as we celebrate the birth of Jesus! We are doing a special Christmas Eve service at 10:00AM. We will have a telling of the Christmas story, carols, and a brief message on Joy. Stay afterwards for our Christmas Party as we eat goodies, play games, and spend time with one another.

Blue Christmas

The constant refrain on the radio and television, in shopping malls and churches, about the happiness of the season, about getting together with family and friends, reminds many people of what they have lost or have never had. The anguish of broken relationships, the insecurity of unemployment, the weariness of ill health, the pain of isolation – all these can make us feel very alone in the midst of the celebrating and spending. We need the space and time to acknowledge our sadness and concern; we need to know that we are not alone.

Our spirits sink, as the days grow shorter. We feel the darkness growing deeper around us. We need encouragement to live the days ahead of us.

For these reasons, we are offering a special “Blue Christmas” service on Thursday December 21st at 6:00PM.

Come out, and join with us in sharing and hearing prayers, scripture, and music that acknowledge that God’s presence is for those who mourn, for those who struggle – and that God’s Word comes to shine light into our darkness. Everyone, regardless of church background (or lack of it) is welcome.

Have You Met My Friend Jesus?

Have you met my friend Jesus?

If you asked a random person what they thought about religion they would probably say something about a bunch of rules or a moral code. They might associate it with judgement and shame and fear. Or they might feel it’s a really good idea, if only they could get their life together first. It’s no wonder that more and more people are walking away from any religious affiliation altogether and don’t feel like it’s worth their time. When Jesus stepped on the scene, the situation wasn’t so different. People claimed to be the messiah all the time but most people didn’t seem to care. But there was something different about Jesus. All kinds of people flocked to him from tax collectors to Roman centurions to woman of low social standing to fishermen. And somehow this became a movement that would change the world forever. What made Jesus so irresistible and how can we as his church share it with the world?

Series: St*ff Church People Say

Stuff Church People Say

Kids these days seem to have a language of their own: “I’m low key simping for that girl over there, no cap. She’s such a Heather and that fit is fire but she seems a little extra, what’s the tea?”

I beg your pardon, what did you say?

Sometimes we can forget that, as church people, we have our own lingo that may be confusing to newcomers. We’re “born again” and “covered by the blood”. We pray for “traveling mercies” and “a hedge of protection”. Some words or phrases are silly or can even be based on poor theology while others represent deep truths that we’ve forgotten.

In this lighthearted new series, we explore how the words we use can be a barrier to communicating the good news about Jesus and to reconnect with the profound truths that we have become casual about. Join us Sundays at 10am on Zoom or in person.
