Serving in the patch

The pumpkin patch is up and running and we'd love your help. Volunteering in the patch is a great way to meet people in the community, help them get their pumpkins and support ministry all at the same time. The sign-up sheets are located in the Info Center (the area between the sanctuary and the hallway to the Christian Life Center). One idea that works well for some of our volunteers is to a pick a time slot that works for you weekly, and then sign up for that time throughout the pumpkin patch season. Also - each shift needs to be covered by two people, so if you see a single empty slot next to another person's name, please feel free to put your name down and join them! Questions? Contact Moss Myers at (707) 724-0900.

What is a CCM?

“Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” (Romans 12:15)

There's a kind of love that doesn't announce itself. It shows up in a card mailed the week before someone's surgery. It shows up in a pamphlet placed gently in the hands of someone still learning how to breathe through grief. It shows up in a folding chair pulled up next to a hospital bed at Spanish Cove, and in the quiet words, “The body of Christ, broken for you,” offered to someone who hasn't been able to sit in our sanctuary in months. This is the ministry of our Congregational Care Ministers.

On Sunday, Oct. 4 after 11:00 worship (around 12:15 pm) there will be a luncheon in the Parlor to celebrate our current Congregational Care Ministers and also serve as an informational meeting if you'd like to learn more about the ministry.

This is an 8-week open group that provides the space for community members to connect with one another and share their experiences, learn new coping skills, gain insights, and find mutual support. Drop in any Tuesday evening starting October 8 from 6:30-7:30pm in room S7. Groups will be facilitated by our Associate Pastor Maya Debruyne. Questions? Please email her here.

Seeking Wednesday cooks

Every Wednesday night our 1st-12th graders get together for some food and fellowship before their bible study classes. We are looking for people to volunteer to choose one or two nights this semester to cook them dinner. There is a button below that will take you to the sign up sheet. You can reach out to Moss Myers if you have any questions.

Wednesday Nights are for all ages!

We're excited announce that Wednesday nights are alive with programs for children, youth AND adults. Children & Youth gather from 5:30 - 8pm in the CLC. They start with dinner together and then move to games, group time and worship. There are also seasonal groups and glasses for adults. Kind out more here on the Connect page!
