Vacation Bible School - Start the Party!

June 3 - 7 | 9:00am - Noon

Click HERE to Register

Jesus gives us the most amazing reason to party! Come celebrate friendship, belonging, forgiveness, life, and purpose, and learn why we believe God’s love and the Gospel of Jesus is the best news ever.

Commit this season to reading scripture each day. It's good practice. If you don’t already have a daily devotion, the scriptures below are designed to expand the range of biblical reading in worship and personal devotion. You can find them in the bulletin each week. The Daily Readings are taken from “The Daily Office Lectionary” in The Book of Common Prayer. Read the Bible each week. It will be a blessing.
