Hello Everyone. On Saturday, November 29th at 10am, we will be gathering together for "Greening of the Church." This is so fun and uplifting for all to help out with preparing our beautiful church for the holidays. Our sanctuary lights up in a very beautiful way with putting up the tree, the adornments and decorations. Come join in and share time together as we move into the season of Christmas. We hope you can make it. Thanks!
Greening of the Church
Community Conversations August 17th
As promised at our Community Conversation on August 17, there will be a 3-session book study of Kennon Callahan's Twelve Keys to an Effective Church (second edition). The dates and times are still to be announced. There are several copies of the book in the church office. Please come get one (or pick it up on Sunday) or contact Pastor Eric if you are interested in attending. The Callahan principles will be foundational for the church goals and plans we develop together. Thank you.
We have several ongoing classes and fun meetings at our church every month. Please see our church calendar attached. Hope to see you soon! Thank you.

Quarteto Nuevo
Friday, January 30, 2026
Quarteto Nuevo merges western classical, eastern European folk, Latin and jazz with an organic feel that packs a wallop! The ensemble’s razor-sharp precision is enhanced by jazzy interludes, lightly rumbling percussion motifs and mesmerizing rhythms. They effectively meld the music of ancient worlds and faraway places with a contemporary groove that enchants audiences of all ages!
