    Read Luke 4:14-30 with your family. Jesus grew up in a small village called Nazareth, in the northern area known as Galilee.

    Gathering Christ calls us together, with our different backgrounds, our different identities, our different gifts, our different ideas, and our different tastes.  Christ calls us together, to share what makes our community special, to build each other up, to serve each other in love.  Christ calls us together, knowing that we need all parts of the body if we are…

  • Kids Korner: The Body of Christ (January 23rd)

    Read 1 Corinthians 12:12-31 with your family. A very important person in the early church named Paul, wrote a letter to his friends in the city of Corinth in Greece.

  • Sunday Worship – January 16, 2022

    Gathering We come to celebrate the feast You offer from the abundance of Your house, the delights we share with others as we share the gifts You give so freely.

  • Kids Korner: A wedding at Cana (January 16th)

    Read John 2:1-12 with your family. Weddings were a very big deal in Jesus’ time.

Usually the wedding was for the whole village and only special people travelled from outside…

  • Kids Korner: Visit of the Magi (January 9th)

    Read Matthew 2:1-12 with your family. Did you realize that Matthew’s story does not have the shepherds or the angels announcing Jesus’ birth? Sometime, a long time ago, the church started putting the stories of Matthew 2 and Luke 2 together to make the story we all know about Jesus’ birth. Matthew tells us that…

  • Sunday Worship – January 2, 2022

    Gathering God of life and new birth, prolific Creator of everything, You have found us here, huddled in this little band, wondering whether this is the palace of Herod or the stable of Christ. The wonder is You met us where we were, and welcomed us as we are, hungry for love and nowhere near…

  • Kids Korner: Jesus is born (January 2nd)

    Read Luke 2:1-20 with your family. This is the second Sunday in Christmas. The twelve days of Christmas start on Christmas Day and end the day before Epiphany in January.
