What has happened during the pandemic?

  • Worship services moved online beginning March 22 (FaceBook live).  From March 29 through June 7, services moved to YouTube.  Links were posted on this site as well as on our Facebook page and Facebook group.  You can still find those links on our Sermon Page.  There are several pages of them!
  • On June 14, Worship moved to Memorial Park and will continue there through October 4, in the shelter house by the caboose.  We could worship, sing, and have fellowship there in an abundance of fresh air.
  • On October 11, we returned to our own sanctuary, with safe practices.  Please remember to wear your mask.  Please understand this is subject to change at any time.
