We wish you all a healthy, happy and blessed Christmas season. With joy, we invite all to our worship services with music and Holy Eucharist on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
On Saturday, December 21, at 5:00 pm, we will come together to celebrate The Longest Night Service. We will remember loved ones who have died and also reflect on the pain, loneliness and sadness we may feel that may keep us from joy and the fullness of life.

During Advent Mondays, I’ve been Zooming with folks for a weekly discussion group reading the book “Following Jesus in a Culture of Fear” by Scott Bader-Saye.” I have found Bader-Saye’s insights about the power of fear in our lives to be thought-provoking and challenging.
