We give thanks for the opportunity to gather together in public worship. A few changes may remain, but we are excited that we are very much back to our traditional worship practices.
In light of recent CDC statements and out of love for our neighbor we simply ask you to be aware of different approaches that people might take to their own health and safety. Trust in the Lord, respect the governing authorities, and show love to each other.
Let’s celebrate being able to gather together again. Let’s celebrate the joy we experience as a family of believers when we worship together—fellowship with each other—serve together—and take the Lord’s supper side by side. Come and join us for worship as we give thanks to God and encourage one another in our love for God and for each other.
“I rejoiced with those who said to me, let us go to the house of the LORD.”
– Psalm 122:1
God’s People Gather – Community
God’s People Gather – Service (1)
God’s People Gather – Lord’s Supper

Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give us meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another – and all the more as you see the Day approaching. – Hebrews 10:22-25.
