“A voice cries out:  “In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.  Every valley shall be lifted up and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain.  Then the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”

Isaiah 40:3-5

You are invited to join our 10:00 a.m. Sunday morning worship service either in person or at home viewing our Facebook page.  Our building is open for worship, but we have strict safety procedures in place, including a requirement that all wear masks.  Sunday is the 2nd Sunday of Advent.  Jerry Hammon’s sermon title is “A Different Approach to Advent” (Mark 1: 1 – 8).  The Sacrament of Holy Communion will be celebrated.  Janet Hansen and Fran Chadwick will sing “Watchman, Tell Us of the Night.”  Our hymns, which will be spoken, include  “Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus”, “For Everyone Born (A Place at the Table)”, and “The Days are Surely Coming.”

ANNOUNCEMENTS

  • Although the church building is open for in-person worship and for our outside groups, our church office remains closed.  Calls to the church phone number are being forwarded to Susan Goe. 
  • Important Announcement Regarding the Food Pantry – Because we are finding it challenging to keep the Pantry stocked and because some clients visit more the once a week, the Mission & Stewardship Committee has given the approval to just be open once a week, on Mondays, at least for the present time.  Pantry volunteers will monitor the need and make recommendations as to the need.  Thank you for continuing to support the Food Pantry with your donations!
