Due to the ongoing cold and icy conditions, Bible study for Wednesday, January 17 will be cancelled. Please join us next Wednesday, January 24 at 10am as we continue our study of Isaiah.

Also, the Prayer Vigil for Wednesday, January 17 will be rescheduled to Wednesday, January 31 from 5-7pm. (Additional details about our prayer vigils are found below.)

In 2023, we began offering opportunities for occasional "prayer vigils" for personal prayer time at church. We'll continue to do so quarterly in 2024. Our next prayer vigil will be on Wednesday, January 17 from 5:00-7:00pm in the sanctuary. Optional resources to help guide your prayers will be provided. Please mark your calendar for the 18th and set aside some time in the Lord's house to spend with Him in prayer. 

On Sunday, January 14 and continuing through the following weeks, we'll have a new Bible study on the topic of "wellness." As we begin this New Year with many people implementing their various resolutions, we'll reflect on wellness from a Christian perspective, looking at physical health, spiritual health, emotional health, and more. Join us each week from 9:00-9:45am in the Sanctuary before services.
