Sermon : "The Earth is the Lord’s" by Rev. Mark Harper

“We don’t own the land that we live on … It’s impossible to own the land that sacredly lives and breathes beneath our feet or to own the sky that holds the clouds and sun and moon over us. We build our homes over land that was never meant to be owned, and we forget. We pull out our checkbooks and we pile up our debt because we are consumers. We are entitled. We miss out on the reality that the water and the ground, this Earth that is capable of such rich relationship, have always been teaching us.”

Many thanks to all who are prayerfully considering your pledge commitments for the coming year, and to those of you who have already made them.

As we imagine ways to keep sharing the light and love of Christ with all generations and neighbors and those we haven’t met yet, let’s also take time to give thanks for one another and the gift of this community. And please remember that one way to do that is by coming to the Just Thanks lunch after worship on Nov. 21st.

Grace and peace, Mark


Hybrid Worship Continues This Sunday

We continue to live-stream our worship with the primary focus on delivering a complete service for people participating on Zoom. 

Our services now originate from the Sanctuary. People are welcome to come to church for worship, but no one should feel obligated to be personally present.

We respectfully ask that all those who have yet to be vaccinated including children wear masks in the church for their own health. For those who wish to join in singing, we respectfully ask that you put on masks during singing.


About Online Worship

We will gather by ZOOM (feed available starting about 10:45 AM).

Directions on how to connect and participate in virtual worship will be sent via a group.io e-mail. If you are unfamiliar with ZOOM we recommend you read up a little before the service. We will set an informal and experimental mood, ask forgiveness as we stumble along our way in a new medium. It will be fun.
