Sorry everyone. For the first time in 13 years we are going to cancel services this morning. The roads in the church neighborhood are not at all passable. Stay home, be safe, stay warm. We'll evaluate evening service depending on how the city does clearing the roads this afternoon. God bless. Pray for one another.
