Worship is celebrated every Sunday at 10:30 am, and evenings during Lent, Holy Week, and Christmas Eve as scheduled in this section. We offer worship for the Deaf every Sunday, on the first, third, and fifth Sundays the worship is in the main church with ASL interpretation. On the second and fourth Sundays there is an all ASL service in the "Sharing Hands" office, off of the courtyard also at 10:30 am. If you have questions about ASL worship please contact our Deaf Mission Developer Donald Rosenkjar at Donkhai99@aol.com.
We bring Scripture to our everyday experiences and illuminate the ancient wisdom with modern explanation and illustration. Our powerful sermons are designed to comfort, inspire, and challenge the listener.
We seek in worship to expand our concept of God beyond exclusively masculine images and language. Scripture readings may reflect this practice. Historical texts may be left unaltered for their beauty and familiarity.
We observe an open communion table – it is not ours, but God’s table and we invite everyone to receive the bread and wine in this blessing of faith.
Holy Communion is offered to all baptized persons of every faith-background. Children may commune at the wish of their parent, or may be brought to the altar for a blessing. We receive the bread as a wafer, dipping it in the wine. We realize that some people prefer non-alcoholic wine; therefore we offer this in the form of white grape juice which is available from the server.
Coffee Hour reception follows Sunday worship in the Fireside Room, please join us for coffee, soda and refreshments. On the first Sunday of the month we celebrate the monthly birthdays with a cake.
