We miss you this morning!
Stay safe and warm and reach out if you need help.

Listen in to this greeting from Pastor Ryan on this snowy day.

"O God, you are our light and our salvation. Living in your presence, we have nothing to fear. Open our hearts to your word this day. Make us ready to follow Jesus on whatever path he leads us. Help us to cast aside our fears and doubts, and teach us to trust wholly in you. For we ask this in Jesus’ Name, AMEN."
