Thought for the Week

A Father... teaches kindness by being thoughtful and gracious even at home. teaches patience by being gentle and understanding over and over. teaches honesty by keeping his promises to his family even when it costs. teaches courage by living unafraid with faith, in all circumstances. teaches justice by being fair and dealing equally with everyone. teaches obedience to God's Word by precept and example as he reads and prays daily with his family. ...teaches love for God and His Church as he takes his family regularly to all the services. His steps are important because others follow.

Happy Fathers Day!

Communion, when celebrated, is open to all who profess Christ as Lord and Savior, whether affiliated with this church or not. Children may partake of Communion as well, if parents approve. A nursery is available during the service; please see a greeter for directions. (This is for infants and children up to 3 years of age.) Handicap-accessible restrooms are located off the narthex (foyer) and adjacent to the entrance lobby in the Fellowship Hall/Gym.
