Pray First Monthly Prayer

Join us for Pray First the first Sunday of the month, from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Chapel as we pray for the Holy Spirit’s transforming work in us and through us as a church. We will be praying for the congregation, ministries of the church, leadership of the church, and outreach to the world around us. This is a wonderful opportunity to join as a church family and lift our voices to our Lord. Questions about how to participate? Contact Brian and Leigh Miller.

Please join us on Sunday, December 17, from 4-6 p.m. as we reach out to the Luce Creek community located directly behind our church property. We will meet at the church at 4 p.m. in the Fishbowl where you can drop off your plate of cookies. We will take a 4-minute walk together down the street to sing Christmas carols and deliver small gifts. We will return to the church for a time of fellowship, treats and hot cocoa. Please bring a flashlight and wear comfortable shoes and dress warmly. This will be a great event the whole family can enjoy! If you have questions, please contact Laurie Nelson.
