Sunday Evening Worship
5:00-6:00 PM
every 1st and 3rd Sunday
in the chapel (except July & August)
Stay connected with God and your church in the midst of your busy lives. We offer an additional, informal, Sunday evening service. This is a small, simple service of singing, prayers, readings and a message from Pastor John; much of it simplified content from the 10:00 AM service. It is family, kid, and adult friendly and less than an hour, with Communion on the first Sunday (not on the third). If this is something that interests you and fits your schedule let us know or simply show up. And yes, those of you zealots among us feel free to double dip and come twice. Let us know if there are other ways we can help you stay connected.
