Ash Wednesday Service

Join our congregation as we begin the season of Lent with an Ash Wednesday service in our Sanctuary on Wednesday March 6th at 7pm. This is a deeply meaningful service for both young and old and an amazing invitation to walk as Jesus walked on his journey to Calvary.

Cherish Center’s Baby Bottle’s Due!

Please be sure to return your filled baby bottle’s to the church as soon as possible! We will be returning them to the Cherish Center to be a blessing to them and their ministry.

Women’s Bible Study

Women’s Bible Study will continue on Sunday evening in the church Fireside Room (our usual room) at 5pm. We are going to look at Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. We will discuss one chapter per week for 6 weeks, at which point it will be time to begin meeting at our Wednesday time again.
Hopefully you can also rejoin us when we go back to Wednesday nights at 6 beginning on March 13th.

No Apologies on March 13th

All 7th-12th grade students are invited to join us for this year’s No Apologies conference. We will eat Pizza Ranch at the church at 4:15pm and will leave for Spencer at 4:45pm. Please invite your friends to join us for an evening of fun and encouragement! Remember that there is no cost for this event.
