"The Call of God" Worship
2024-02-11 11:00 - 12:00, 2024-02-04 11:00 - 12:00, 2024-01-28 11:00 - 12:00
Why does God have, or need a church? What is our role as followers of Jesus? The question of God’s call has two parts, which we will explore in this series. First, what is God calling us to? What is it to be a follower of Jesus? Second, what is call calling us to do? What is God’s mission in the world, and how does a church help with that?
Join us this Epiphany season as we look at both these questions in more detail.

Messy Play
2024-02-03 10:30 - 13:00
Is your family looking for a community of Jesus-seeking people, but you’re a little wary of what “church membership” means? Have you ever wanted to talk with your kids about God, religion, or other big questions, but didn’t know where to begin? Are you looking for an open-minded place to talk about family and faith with other young families? If so, join us on the first Saturday of each month from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM for a time of community, stories, and play, as we look at Bible stories, the teachings of Jesus, and our church traditions and see how they affect our lives today.
Messy Play is a union of Messy Church and Godly Play. Messy Church is a Fresh Expression of what church can be, and is for you if you want something a little less structured than a regular Sunday morning church. Godly Play is a method of hearing and integrating Scripture and church traditions into our lives, and is great for you if you’re interested in that, but don’t want to be told what to think about it.
The best part about Messy Play? There’s lunch for everyone at noon. Looking forward to seeing you there!

The Call of God: A Community of Fishers
2024-01-21 11:00 - 12:00
A service of Word based on Mark 1:14-20
Have you ever recommended a good restaurant to a friend? You probably talked about how the food tasted, what kind of atmosphere was there. Or what about a movie? Maybe you mentioned the cast, or the plot. But what about church? If you’re like most of us, you probably don’t know where to start. However, in our Gospel reading, we hear about Jesus calling the first disciples, and promising to make them “fishers of people.” How did Jesus do this for His 1st century followers, and how does He do the same thing for His 21st century followers?
Points to Ponder:

Have you ever gone fishing? How was it similar to the disciples’ methods? How was it different?
What other purposes can people, including you, have in life?
In fishing for people, are there any people you would not want to catch? Why?
What part of your net needs mending? In other words, what in your life is letting people miss Christ in you?

"The Call of God" Worship
2024-01-14 11:00 - 12:00
A service of word based on 1 Samuel 3:1-10 There seems to be no end to all the opportunities to make a difference. Should we help out at a soup kitchen, or donate to dig wells in Africa? Should we advocate for more physically accessible spaces, or for more support for students with intellectual disabilities? There are so many good causes out there, which one (or ones) should we support? There would have been many things that a young lad like Samuel could have done in his day, but God had a particular mission for him, just like there is a particular mission for each of us today. Join us as we look int how Samuel discerned his call, and how we can discern ours today.
Points To Ponder:

What is something that you used to love to do or be a part of that has grown rarer in your life?
Looking back, have you misheard God before? Describe what happened.
Who do you have in your life that can point you in the right direction if you’re going the wrong way?
Who can you be that voice for?

"The Call of God" Worship
2024-01-07 11:00 - 12:00
One of the biggest rules in sales is to help customers find WII-FM, or “What’s in It For Me?” For so many of us, this permeates how we look at the world, trying to find out how certain things will affect us. But, when it comes to signs from God, signs like the Christmas Star the Magi followed to Bethlehem, this approach can lead to disastrous results. Join us as we investigate how we should look at signs from God, and how we should look at the world.
Questions to Ponder:

What would be your response if you saw an unexpectedly bright object in the sky?
In your life, how have you responded like the magi to something unexpected?
In your life, how have you responded like Herod and the scribes to something unexpected?
Where do you find hope?
