Our weekly gathering is meant to encourage us, prepare us for serving the communities to which we’re sent. We practice these traditions: following lectionary readings, taking communion, singing hymns, and preparing our hearts to encounter God with quietness and reverence. Every part of our service is an opportunity for our eyes to be drawn towards God in worship. Please partake in this holy offering.

“You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water.” (Psalm 63:1)

WEDNESDAY

12:15 pm Holy Eucharist and Healing Service

Are any among you sick? They should call for the elders of the church and have them pray over them, anointing them with oil in the name of the Lord. The prayer of faith with save the sick, and the Lord will raise them up.” James 5:14-15

On Wednesdays, we offer a mid-week healing prayer service. This is an intimate gathering that includes anointing, laying on of hands, and prayers for you and for anyone you love who is suffering in mind, body, or spirit. There is also a brief teaching for reflection, and everyone is invited to receive Holy Eucharist.
