Worship & Music

We anchor our life together in the vibrant worship of the living God. In Sunday worship, we cultivate thoughtful, reflective faith through regular engagement with Scripture. We sense the Spirit moving through music, prayer, the spoken word, and faith traditions. Our style is orderly but not formal and don’t be surprised if the passing of the peace goes on and on as we love taking time to greet visitors and one another warmly.

We believe in gathering as an intergenerational community and provide interactive materials for children 5 and over.

Nursery care is available for children birth through age 4.

Music Ministries

Every Sunday our singers and musicians lead us in music both old and new, traditional, and modern that point to Jesus’ grace and love for all people. 

Sanctuary Choir
