Welcome      Grow       Serve      Celebrate

Last Sunday we continued our "Come to the Water" worship series as Rev. Haven Boyd shared a story about an answered call by Philip to baptize an outsider. I hope to see you this Sunday as we remind ourselves of the waters that name us and claim us. If your summer plans do not allow you to be present in person, remember, you can always engage in worship and give online. May we all come to the water.

NEW SONG! When Abbye West Pates joined us in worship this Spring, she shared a new original song, "To Be Well," written during some of the hardest months of 2020. Inspired by the well-known words of St. Julian of Norwich, Abbye adapted them into a prayer for all times, and especially these times, a prayer "for all things to be well, and all things to be well, for all manner of things to be well." The newly released single, "To Be Well," is now available on Abbye's website (abbyewestpates.com) and everywhere you stream music! Follow the link to listen now: http://www.linktr.ee/awpmusic.
