We join our hearts in worship on the 4th Sunday after Epiphany by coming here and participating in the recorded service.

As we gather for our Annual Meeting on Sunday at 11 am via Zoom (email link sent on Friday), it is very important that we participate in worship together in Spirit first, if possible. I hope you will be able to worship first and then join the meeting. This sets our priorities well and reminds us of our calling and purpose as a church.

In place of our usual Thanksgiving for Baptism, we will all participate in the Affirmation of Baptism as Shelly Barker and her daughter Liz become part of our church family in worship!

God’s Word reminds us that we have a wonderful and attractive calling to invite others to “Come and See” what it is really like to be a part of a faith community. The pandemic has caused all of us to re-evaluate our priorities and to emphasize our relationships with each other, our world and God. As we move into receiving the vaccine and seriously diminishing its dangers, these scripture readings call us to help our neighbors know God and their place in our world better through our church.
