Current Sunday In-Person and Online Services and Bulletins

November 15, 2025

This is Consecration Sunday, when we renew our financial commitments to the mission and ministry of our church. You can place your estimate of giving cards in the offering plates during the service or afterwards in Lakeview Social Hall. Pastor Jeanine will be preaching on “LO … I am With You Always.” There will be music from the Sanctuary Choir and Tapestry, and we’ll look back on a busy year with the annual Year in Ministry slideshow. Plus, we will be welcoming new members to our congregation!

Please be aware that our services are livestreamed, and any adults or children participating in musical groups, children’s messages, and liturgist roles will appear on camera. 

A nursery for children age 5 and under is available on the lower level. Activity bags for children remaining in worship will be available at the Family Table in the Narthex. There will be Sunday School for K-4th graders , and 5th and 6th graders will help.

For those who will watch the service online, either live or later in the week, please fill out the Connect Card.  If you are attending in person, you may also record your attendance using this card. This is important for maintaining accurate church records. If you need help or have questions, please call the church office at 218-727-5021 between 9am and 3pm, Monday-Friday. You can find all our online services on the Worship Service Video Bulletin Archive page and our YouTube Channel.
