KITCHEN FUN!
If you are a person that believes those two words go together – and that gathering with friends in our kitchen for creative cooking sounds fun – let us know! We had a great time making doughnuts, and we’re interested in other adventures. Contact Pastor Paul if interested.


LIBRARY/STUDY RENOVATION
You’ll notice some changes in our library space. We are working on clearing our library – and sending books we don’t need to better homes! (Before any books leave the church, we’ll be offering them to the congregation.) Then we’ll be bringing in comfortable couches and chairs to create a comfortable small group gathering space. We’d love your input!


MONDAY LECTIONARY STUDY
Every Monday at 6pm, Pastor Paul welcomes you to join him in the first look at the Lectionary texts for the following Sunday. This is a time for questions and conversation in our lives of faith – and your participation greatly assists in creating a meaningful sermon on Sunday. Join us!


SUMMER LOVIN’!
It’s been a long winter – let’s welcome Summer with beautiful gardens and summer picnics. We’ll be creating a “Monarch Waystation” garden on our grounds with milkweed and pollinator plants, and Pastor Paul would like to host weekly picnics with a grill at the ready, lawn chairs and lawn games. Interested? Let us know!
