Revised Week of June 15, 2026 – June 21, 2026

FROM THE MINISTER’S DESK

Baptisms are such a joyful occasion in the life of the church, and this Sunday we will be baptizing 9 individuals from ages 1 to 38, and everything in between! We will also welcome one new member by re-affirmation of faith. What a shining example of the words from Ephesians 4, that by our one baptism, though we are all different, we are one body by the one Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ.

STAY CONNECTED…..

We want to help you stay connected so if you happen to be wondering “who’s doing what” in terms of duties, the list for this week is below….
