This Sunday, Father’s Day, we will be celebrating the gift of fatherhood, recognizing God’s perfect design for fathers and their impact on families, whether new or seasoned fathers, grandfathers, or those who have been like a father to someone close to them.

Sermon: Men, After God’s Own Heart
PSALM 71:14-21,Luke 11:5-13

Church isn’t just about believing - it’s about belonging. If you’re looking for a thoughtful community of believers that welcomes questions and values faith in action, we hope you’ll join us.

Living in a world where there is such a need for the love and good news of Jesus Christ, this Sunday’s Gospel Lesson is a powerful reminder of Jesus’ words, that though the needs are great, “the harvest is plentiful” the workers are few in the field. So we, like Jesus’ first disciples, are called everyday to be workers, laborers in the field, so that all may come to know Jesus as the Good Shepherd of their souls.

Sunday’s Sermon: Jesus, the Lord of the Harvest.(Matthew 9:35-10:8)

Be part of our worship service this Sunday at 11 am.

Summer is here, and while June may be a quieter month on the church calendar, it remains a wonderful time to gather in worship, deepen our faith, and enjoy fellowship with one another.

"For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." – Matthew 18:20

We believe faith grows best in community, through worship, conversation, and shared service. Our church is a place where people are known, cared for, and encouraged along the journey.

Whether you’ve been part of a church before, if it has been many years since you last attended, or if you are seeking a place to belong, you are welcome here.

We invite you to worship with us each Sunday at 11 am.

In just a few short verses of scripture from Matthew’s Gospel, this Sunday we get a picture of a day in the life of our Lord. That is, how Jesus changes the lives of a despised tax collector, an unclean woman, a desperate religious leader and father, and a dead girl, all needing the healing touch of the master. This Sunday’s Gospel Lesson promises to powerfully remind us that no matter who we are, whether we realize it or not, we are all in need of the transforming presence of Jesus in our lives.

Be part of our worship service this Sunday at 11 am.

Do you need to have everything figured out before coming to church?

Not at all.

Faith is something we grow into, not something we arrive at fully formed.

Whether you’re exploring, questioning, or returning, you are welcome here.

We invite you to join us each Sunday at 11 am.

This Sunday, Trinity Sunday, we will be celebrating the Trinity, one God in three persons. While Christendom has long tried to explain the Triune God as Father, Son and the Holy Spirit, we will explore what scripture has to say about the Trinity. It is indeed a great mystery as to how God can not only be up there, but also down here and indeed everywhere all at the same time. Matthew 28:16-20

Come discover how this message can speak to you this Sunday at 11 am.

Presbyterian churches are not independent - we are connected. We are part of a larger body of churches that support, guide, and hold one another accountable.

We value thoughtful faith, strong teaching, shared leadership, and being part of a larger church family.

It’s a tradition that engages both heart and mind, and invites people into a deeper understanding of God.

What a blessed and joyful time we shared together at our Pentecost Celebration this past Sunday!

From fellowship and laughter to our special cake cutting ceremony, it was a beautiful reminder of the gift of church family. We especially loved recognizing both the oldest and youngest members of our congregation, celebrating the generations that make up our church and the faithfulness of God through each season of life.

Pentecost marks the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples after Jesus’ resurrection and ascension, empowering them to share the Gospel with the world. It is often called the “birthday of the Church” and reminds us that we are united together through the Spirit as the body of Christ.

We are so grateful for each person who helped make this celebration meaningful and for the many blessings of worshiping, serving, and growing in faith together. Thank you to everyone who joined us for Pentecost Sunday!
