Join us as we hear the story of God's love for His people and His journey to the cross.

Easter Garden
If you are interested in providing a lily, tulips, or other Easter flowers for our Easter garden, please contact Pastor Suzanne to make arrangements to drop them off. Or, better yet, bring them with you to the Maundy Thursday, or either of our Good Friday services.
Ministry Support
We've recently made some purchases to make our church a more welcoming place...even for our little ones. We will soon have baby-changing "stations" in both our washrooms. If you'd like to help offset the cost of these and other purchases for our worship space, please feel free to give a little extra in your weekly offering and mark it for "General Fund" or "Ministries." Thanks for helping us "support" all God's children:-)
Sermon recap: Last Sunday we heard a message through Scripture. We heard the story of Jesus journey to the cross as read by our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Thanks to all who felt moved by the Spirit to read. It was great!
Sermon preview: This Sunday, we'll again hear a message from Scripture - THE message, really. We'll witness the Resurrection of Jesus and think about what this moment in time means to our lives today. Invite a friend and be sure to join us!
Wishing you peace, hope, joy and love always! Have a blessed Easter.
