"O Lord our God, how majestic is your name in all the earth"
Psalm 8:1

This Sunday we celebrate Holy Trinity Sunday. In this week's gospel reading Jesus sends his disciples forth to baptize in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. More than a doctrine, the Trinity expresses the heart of our faith.

Join us this sunday for worship service starting at 10:30 AM with communion. We have nursery care available for younger children downstairs in the Sunday School room by the Coffee Corner.

What a glorious day in Jerusalem yesterday as we celebrated Music Appreciation Sunday, where we honored and acknowledge all the special music and musicians that have shared their gifts and talents with us throughout the year.

Yesterday we had the pleasure of hearing our beautiful handbell choir, see our Praising Hands performed their Liturgical and sign language dance, and our Sunday School choir sang their small verse song.

It was a day of joy, celebration, and special praises to God, for all the glory and honor belongs to Him.
