SUMMARY:SUNDAY WORSHIP - Contemplative Communion
DESCRIPTION:December 5\, 2021: Second Sunday of Advent  \nFirst Reading: Malachi 3:1-4 – My messenger is a refiner and purifier \nPsalm: Luke 1:68-79 – In the tender compassion of our God the dawn from on high shall break upon us. (Lk. 1:78) \nSecond Reading: Philippians 1:3-11 – A harvest of righteousness on the day of Jesus Christ \nGospel: Luke 3:1-6 – Prepare the way of the Lord \nCovid-19 Regulations\n\n\nIn light of the ongoing pandemic and the presence of the Delta variant\, we are all wearing masks for the 9:30 service. Other congregations are making different choices\, accepting greater levels of risk\, but we have opted to take a cautious path throughout. We believe it is our duty and it is also our desire to protect the vulnerable among us and to adapt ourselves to the current times. We all live each day doing the best we can. We are a church that recognizes life is fragile and we are inherently vulnerable. We are always a breath away from our mortality. Please realize we make every effort to minimize the risk of transmitting COVID-19 during worship\, but even being careful cannot remove all risk. Also\, we want our non-vaccinated friends to be able to worship with us without being singled out. The 8am service is a much smaller group and there are few responses and no singing\, so mask wearing there has been optional. We are asking all who attend the 8am service to have a face covering with you\, just in case we have a friend in attendance who is not yet comfortable being out without covering. Thank you.

SUMMARY:Blue Christmas Service
DESCRIPTION:This is a quiet service of reflection and lament for all that isn’t as we would like it… for the people we grieve\, for the sorrows we share\, for the gaps between the haves and the have nots… for what we cannot fix on our own\, for what we need God to rescue and rehabilitate in our lives and in our world.

SUMMARY:SUNDAY WORSHIP - Contemplative Communion
DESCRIPTION:Covid-19 Regulations\n\n\nIn light of the ongoing pandemic and the presence of the Delta variant\, we are all wearing masks for the 9:30 service. Other congregations are making different choices\, accepting greater levels of risk\, but we have opted to take a cautious path throughout. We believe it is our duty and it is also our desire to protect the vulnerable among us and to adapt ourselves to the current times. We all live each day doing the best we can. We are a church that recognizes life is fragile and we are inherently vulnerable. We are always a breath away from our mortality. Please realize we make every effort to minimize the risk of transmitting COVID-19 during worship\, but even being careful cannot remove all risk. Also\, we want our non-vaccinated friends to be able to worship with us without being singled out. The 8am service is a much smaller group and there are few responses and no singing\, so mask wearing there has been optional. We are asking all who attend the 8am service to have a face covering with you\, just in case we have a friend in attendance who is not yet comfortable being out without covering. Thank you.

SUMMARY:SUNDAY WORSHIP- Classic Communion
DESCRIPTION:December 26\, 2021: 1st Sunday of Christmas \nFirst Reading: 1 Samuel 2:18-20\, 26 – The boy Samuel grew in favor with the Lord and the people \nPsalm: Psalm 148 – The splendor of the Lord is over earth and heaven. (Ps. 148:13) \nSecond Reading: Colossians 3:12-17 – Clothe yourselves in love; let the peace of Christ rule your hearts \nGospel: Luke 2:41-52 – The boy Jesus increased in wisdom\, and in divine and human favor \n  \nCovid-19 Regulations\n\n\nIn light of the ongoing pandemic and the presence of the Delta variant\, we are all wearing masks for the 9:30 service. Other congregations are making different choices\, accepting greater levels of risk\, but we have opted to take a cautious path throughout. We believe it is our duty and it is also our desire to protect the vulnerable among us and to adapt ourselves to the current times. We all live each day doing the best we can. We are a church that recognizes life is fragile and we are inherently vulnerable. We are always a breath away from our mortality. Please realize we make every effort to minimize the risk of transmitting COVID-19 during worship\, but even being careful cannot remove all risk. Also\, we want our non-vaccinated friends to be able to worship with us without being singled out. The 8am service is a much smaller group and there are few responses and no singing\, so mask wearing there has been optional. We are asking all who attend the 8am service to have a face covering with you\, just in case we have a friend in attendance who is not yet comfortable being out without covering. Thank you.
