Worship
The worship at this church is diverse and meaningful. There are specific worship gatherings geared to and led by people in their twenties and thirties.
Resonate – held on the third Wednesday of each month in the Reception Room. Images and paintings from art and popular culture are used to inspire spirituality and challenge thought. A personable, yet provoking, talk is followed by a creative way for us to respond such as communion around a table, washing of hands, or a prayer offering. All of this is set amidst piano arrangements that stir the soul and honor God. What’s great is that this service has developed out of the gifts of people who have stepped forward, and will continue to evolve as others share their gifts and ideas of art, music and creative worship.
Maundy Thursday – held in someone’s home to celebrat communion during Holy Week.
There are also ways to be involved in Sunday morning worship.
Music program —join the choir or make your own joyful noise from the pew
Ushering – showing people to their seats and collecting the offering.
