Here’s what’s happening in worship this week.
Worship Services
Journey Worship | Sunday, at 8:45 am
An interactive, energetic service for those seeking a fresh encounter with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our theme this month is Family Tree. Pastor Patrice will preach.
Sanctuary Worship | Sunday, at 11 am
Our largest service, with music from the Chancel Choir and an organ prelude prior to the service. Our theme for Advent is Bookends. Each week, we’ll take a theme from Genesis and explore how it is “answered” in Revelation. As we observe the third Sunday of Advent, our scripture readings will be Genesis 4:1–16 and Revelation 19:5–10. Pastor Randy will preach and his sermon will be titled “Advent Bookends: Murder and Marriage.”
Taizé | Wednesday, at 7 pm
An hour-long service including sung prayers; simple, beautiful music; a time of silence; spoken and silent prayers; and an opportunity for individual prayer and anointing. The Rev. Mary Lynn Callahan will lead worship. Stay afterward for Contemplative Prayer.
Christian Education Classes
We offer Christian Education classes for persons of all ages, from infancy through adulthood, on Sundays from 9:45–10:45 am. Click the links for adult class descriptions and children and youth offerings.
This week, classes will be cancelled so that everyone can enjoy our Christmas Pageant, The Traveler’s Guide to Christmas. Church School classes will resume next week, Sun., Dec. 20, before taking a break. Mark your calendars now for Winter Rally Day, Sun., Jan. 10. More details to come.
