Two new classes begin Sunday |
This November, we invite you to take part in one of two rich and meaningful Adult Formation offerings designed to deepen faith, broaden understanding, and strengthen our life together in Christ.
Immigration: Faith, History, and Human Stories
This four-week series explores the complex and deeply human reality of immigration. Each week will offer a different lens – history, Scripture, personal testimony, and faithful action. We’ll learn from knowledgeable leaders and neighbors who will help us consider how Christians are called to respond with compassion and justice.
All in the Family
This four-week series invites us to reflect on what it means to be part of God’s family – beloved children of God and siblings in Christ. Together, we’ll explore theological insights about God as parent and consider how our own relationships grow and change throughout our lives. Space will be offered for reflection and conversation rooted in grace.
Whether you are drawn to thoughtful engagement on a pressing social issue or a reflective journey into the heart of Christian community, we hope you’ll join us.

Please take a brief 5-minute survey |
As part of the Vestry’s ongoing discernment about the ministries and facilities we share, we invite you to take a brief 5-minute survey. Some important maintenance projects are on the horizon, and we’re exploring how we might address them in ways that also enhance our physical space and its functionality. Your feedback will help us understand priorities and discern potential next steps. Thank you for taking a few moments to share your thoughts!
