All ages worship together August 30

We're trying something new. In months with a fifth Sunday, we are encouraging family members of all ages to worship together in all three services. Having things like Kids Connect and nursery are wonderful, but there's something beautiful that happens when everyone, no matter their age, participates in worship together. Can it be challenging? You bet, but we can encourage and show patience with each others as we share the experience. August 30 is the next "fifth Sunday" so mark your calendars for our first Family Sunday!

Nursery will still be available on an as-needed basis.
