“Ancient Echoes from the Mouth of Isaiah” is the 2020 theme for our Midweek Advent Services. Services are on Wednesday, at 1:00 PM. In each, we will explore an ancient prophecy foretelling of the Christ-child. If the Old Testament sometimes seems cryptic for you, this series is for you!
Thanksgiving Eve Service
November 25, 2020 by
Our annual Thanksgiving Eve Service is at 6:00 PM, on Wednesday (yes, Thanksgiving Eve). Even in 2020, the year of COVID, we still have much for which to be thankful. Though, following health protocols, we ask those who come to sit six feet from other worshipers.
Church is Reopened
October 17, 2020 by
Our Sunday Services and Sunday School are back to “normal,” that is, COVID-19 normal. Our pastor was under quarantine because he was exposed to the virus during his pastorly duties.

September 21, 2020 by
The first time someone stepped into the arena to preach Jesus, he wanted all to understand—this Word of Christ is for everyone! Such a day, which some christen as the birthday of the Church. The wind of the Spirit swept down upon Jesus’ disciples. Atop each person’s head, flames like fire flickered and danced. Astonished, […]
Philippians 1:12-14, 19-30: Chrestos to Christos to Kerdos
September 21, 2020 by
Under house arrest in Rome, Paul can no longer travel. In earlier days, he twice journeyed to Philippi, disembarking at the port of Neapolis. Now, trekking overland, the closer he approaches the city, the more Latin signposts speckle the landscape. Upon entering, wherever Paul turns, Roman Temples and Latin inscriptions fill the eye. The city’s […]
Matthew 18:21-35: 70 x 7
September 17, 2020 by
“Up to seven times,” Peter blurts out, stipulating how many times somebody should absolve another. The Jewish rabbis of his day said someone met this obligation after forgiving three times (Babylonian Talmud, Yoma 86b-87a). With more than double what these religious men expect, Peter considers himself most charitable. Why Jesus didn’t mention the offender repented […]
