WE BELIEVE - in the Great Ends of the Church, as set forth in our Book of Order: "the proclamation of the Gospel for the salvation of humankind; the shelter, nurture, and spiritual fellowship of the children of God; the maintenance of divine worship; the preservation of the truth; the promotion of social righteousness; and the exhibition of the Kingdom of Heaven to the world." WE BELIEVE - in a theology of mission, as expressed in the Westminster Confession of Faith: "... Christ hath commissioned his Church to go into all the world and to make disciples of all nations. All believers are therefore under obligation ... to contribute by their prayers, gifts, and personal efforts to the extension of the Kingdom of Christ throughout the whole earth." WE DO - mission and its related functions in "good Presbyterian order" through the structures of our General Assembly, synods, presbyteries and local churches, which provide accountability in a connectional system. The chief agencies of the General Assembly are the Office of the General Assembly, General Assembly Mission Council, Board of Pensions, Presbyterian Foundation, Presbyterian Investment and Loan Program and Presbyterian Publishing Corporation. WE DO - mission in partnership locally, nationally and globally by prioritizing our available resources, guided by the emphases given by our General Assembly, the biannual meeting of clergy and lay commissioners who represent the presbyteries of the church. Through the General Assembly, all Presbyterians have a voice in setting directions for mission and through their General Mission Giving, have a vital responsibility in carrying out what the General Assembly has mandated.

In observance of Memorial Day, the church office will be closed on Monday as we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is a gift we should never take for granted.

As we gather with family and friends this weekend, may we also take a moment to reflect with gratitude and remembrance. Wishing everyone a safe, peaceful, and meaningful Memorial Day weekend. 🇺🇸

🔥Join us for worship tomorrow at 11:00 AM as we celebrate Pentecost!

We invite you to wear red as we remember the fire of the Holy Spirit descending at Pentecost — a symbol of God’s presence, power, and the boldness given to the Church.

This week’s sermon is “Fire in Their Bones”
Scripture: Book of Joel 2:28–29 and Acts of the Apostles 2:1–4

Fear transforms into bold witness as the Spirit ignites ordinary people for extraordinary mission.

We would love to worship with you! 🔥

SPECIAL CCM COLLECTION: We are partnering with CCM to help care for neighbors in our community who are facing food insecurity. As needs continue to grow, we invite you to support this effort by bringing food donations for the collection basket; the most needed items are listed below. We will also be receiving a special monetary collection through June, which allows CCM to purchase food directly by the pallet at significantly reduced prices, helping every gift go even further. Please notate checks and online donations “CCM Food Drive.”
Thank you in advance for your generosity and continued prayers for the needs of our neighbors.
