Join us for a joyful All-Church Sunday as we gather to begin a new season of worship and ministry together! Our 10:00 AM worship service will include a special blessing of backpacks for children, as well as a blessing of our church's ministries and all who serve through them. Children are invited to bring their backpacks to worship.
Ministry leaders are invited to bring an object that represents their ministry, such as a music folder, garden tool, food basket, prayer shawl, or another meaningful symbol. During worship, we will bring these symbols forward as we give thanks for and bless the many ways God is at work through our church.
Immediately after worship, we will gather for an all-church picture, followed by a potluck meal. Please bring a dish to share if you are able. Everyone is welcome at our table as we share food and fellowship together!
