Our worship services are a dynamic blend of traditional and fluid styles. Classic hymns on our beautiful pipe organ are mingled with newer contemporary music. Different art forms are employed. The service often follows the common lectionary for readings from the Bible and our pastor Bryan delights in both educating the church and interpreting lessons relevant for our culture and time. We find power in metaphor and are more interested in interpretation than literalism. Our services are designed to bring hope, humor, challenge, and change to this life rather than focusing on the next. We do not believe in exclusivism and honor all enduring faith traditions and the spiritual truth of each individual.
Kids of all ages are welcome to attend the service. Pastor Bryan always includes a "Kids' Sermon" just for kids. Following the kids' sermon, we provide child care in our nursery for infants and toddlers.
The Groups page includes the leader of each group. Send them an email about your interest and they will get back to you!
