Programs and Services
Worship:
Reverend Patricia Battle believes worship is the center of our life here. Each Sunday we enjoy fine music from our organist and our choir. We sing a variety of music—traditional, contemporary, and even a little Gospel and Spirituals on occasion. Prayer time is an important time of sharing our joys and concerns with one another. The sermons tie our daily lives to the Biblical story.
Sunday school is from 9:15-10:15 and Worship is 10:30 to 11:30, with Coffee hour following worship. Childrens Church (Celebration Station) and childcare is also available.
