Sunday 11/22/2020 Worship online
We are going “all virtual” tomorrow November 22 due to the surging COVID cases in our area. We are doing this for the time being, out of an abundance of caution. So no Worship Services or Sunday School classes in either building tomorrow, until further notice. We hope and pray it won’t be long before we can open up our in-person services at both buildings again.
We will be continuing our Fall sermon series called, Need Change? (Finding Hope From People Who Found Change). Each message looks at a different Bible character whose life changed when it seemed impossible. If they all could find change, we can, too…
Tomorrow I will preach a message from Luke 19:1-10 entitled, “Grace That Turns A Taker Into A Giver.” We will meet Zacchaeus, a man that everyone else had given up on — but not Jesus. It’s a story of God’s incredible life-changing grace.
So please join us tomorrow for our virtual Worship Service at 10:30 AM, by WebEx video or phone.
We will not be able to have a song response time following the message tomorrow.
There is also no Youth School School tomorrow, and the Adult Class will be virtual by WebEx video or phone following the service.
A recording of the sermon will be posted on the church website later in the day.

Sunday Worship, 11/15/2020
We will be continuing our Fall sermon series called, Need Change? (Finding Hope from People Who Found Change). Each message looks at different Bible characters whose lives changed when it seemed impossible. If they could find change, maybe we can, too…
Tomorrow I will preach a message from Luke 7:36-50 entitled, “The Transforming Power of a Great Forgiveness.” We will see Jesus in an incredible interaction with a religious man and a sinful woman in a room full of people. It is full of life-changing surprise about forgiveness and love for our lives today.
So please join us for the Worship Service tomorrow at 10:30 AM, in person or by WebEx.
Our song response will be in person, and also by YouTube.
Sunday School for 5th-12th Grades and Adults will follow the service at 12:00 PM, in person (Adult Class also by Webex).
A recording of the sermon will be posted on the church website later in the day.

1. Chairs are spaced for social distancing. Please sit with your household and maintain 6-foot social distancing from others.

Sermon recording 11/1/2020 John Julien, “The Twelve”
Apologies, but there is no sound until about the 10 min 40 second mark. It’s still well-worth listening. If you ask Pastor Julien maybe he will re-tell the fishing story from his introduction!
