The Power of Words

Traditional Worship @ 8:30 and 11:00 am

Modern Worship @ 11:15 am

This Sunday, we’re kicking off a new series about spiritually strengthening. Just like we need exercise for our bodies, we need spiritual habits to keep our faith healthy and growing. Together, we’ll explore simple practices to help us connect with God and find more joy, strength, and wisdom. Don’t miss this chance to start the year off with a spark that could change everything!

Combined Worship @ 11:00 in Sanctuary
Rev. Val Stewart, Associate Pastor
Have you ever lost something really important to you? Mary and Joseph once lost Jesus, but he wasn’t really lost—he was right where he needed to be! This Sunday, we’ll hear the story of how they found him and what it teaches us about growing in faith and looking for Jesus in the right places. We'll see you Sunday!

In this week's scripture reading, Luke 1:46-55, we hear Mother Mary's song, the Magnificat. In her song she sings about her delight in the Lord and her awe at His great love.  But what if this song is our song too?  Join us Sunday at 8:30 and 11:0 am as Pastor Tully reflects on Mary's words in her verse and imagines that these were our words too.

This Sunday Modern Worship will be holding a special service of scripture and contemporary Christmas music that tells the story of Jesus’ birth as we prepare our hearts to receive Jesus again. Come experience the nativity story through scripture and song as our Modern Worship band leads the music, and members of our congregation read the scriptures dear to our hearts. Pastor Val will bring a short message, “The Scandalous Birth Story” based on Matthew 1:18-25, and we will go out singing with joy, and filled with the hope, peace, and love of Christ in our hearts.

Patrick Wilson, Lay Speaker

We live in a highly developed world, dominated by the trappings of an advanced society. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by our possessions and our obligations. As we try to please everyone around us, the pressures of the Christmas season can make it even worse. How do we reconnect with the true spirit of Christianity? Our resident lay speaker, Patrick Wilson, will explore that question in this week’s sermon, “Enchanted.”
