Next Sunday, July 4th, our worship will move to the library in the Education Building while the sanctuary is being renovated. The re-plastering and painting of the sanctuary is scheduled to be completed by about mid-August. We will move back to the sanctuary when the renovation is complete.

In the meantime, we will continue to live-stream our worship with the primary focus on delivering a complete service for people participating on Zoom. People are welcome to come to church for worship, but no one should feel obligated to be personally present. The entrance for worship during the renovation will be through the wooden doors on Maple Avenue.

We respectfully ask that everyone wear masks in the church for their own health. Those who are presenting or singing may remove their masks while they are presenting or singing.

In addition, Wednesday Evening Prayer will take a summer break beginning this week.  It will return on Wednesday, August 11 at 7:00 p.m.
