This service offers an opportunity to slow down and be in God’s presence through music, quiet, and prayer. Bring your whole self into God’s presence to grow in praise and intimacy, holding in prayer all that needs a holy touch. Led by Rev. Kevin and Liz Raihala.
During the Lenten season, Pastor David’s sermons are focusing on some “challenging emotions,” exploring how we can work with and through them as followers of Jesus. Here are the themes he will be working with the remaining Sundays of Lent:
March 6: Jousting with Jealousy
March 13: Tackling Turmoil
March 20: Grappling with Grief
If you miss a Sunday, you can hear and read Pastor David’s sermons here.
