We will also enter into the Advent Season as we light candles and learn to find our way in the growing darkness of this season. Join us for worship in-person and online.

What are you preparing for? Waiting for? Be part of our gathering as we celebrate this season of waiting with songs. Also, our children will present a Christmas scene and song from the perspective of the animals in the manger. Join us for worship in-person and online.
