Join us for our Thanksgiving worship event at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 23. We will offer thanks for God’s many blessings, especially the gift of time spent together as a community of disciples. We will meet in the sanctuary for worship, and as true disciples in motion, we will make our way to the Welcome Center for an extension of our worship, and finally, we will conclude the evening in the Parish Life Center as we enjoy some delicious pie! Don’t miss this opportunity to receive grace, offer gratitude, and eat pie!

If you are able to bring a pie or help serve/clean up please sign up on REALM!
