Mighty Gatherings

Morning Prayer

Join members of the community for morning prayer on Facebook, Monday – Saturday at 8:30am. For about 20 minutes we pause to hear scripture and to pray for what’s on our hearts and for the cares and concerns of the world.

Join Us in Prayer

Compline

Our small prayer community continues to pray Compline, an ancient nigh prayer of the church, at 9:00pm. each weekday night.  We have a variety of voices leading us, and we would be delighted if you would join us.  Call the church office for dial-in information.

Finding Common Grounds

Coffee Hour

Join us after worship on Sunday for coffee hour (or lemonade hour in the summer) immediately following the 10:15am. service. This is a great time for conversation, camaraderie, and meeting new people.
