Spiritual direction is a ministry of listening, discernment, and prayer in a confidential setting of encouragement and compassion. Through this ministry one discerns the presence and work of God’s Spirit with a companion who sets aside the concerns of their own life to attend to the experience of God in the life of another. We are fortunate to have two Spiritual Directors that sets aside one day each month to meet with members of our church family. As a gift to you, church will pay for your first session so you can try it out (made possible by a generous gift to the church Memorial Fund). After your complimentary session, we ask that you pay at least half the cost of the session fee as you are able (full cost is $50, half is $25). We hope you are deeply blessed by your time in Spiritual Direction.
READING JAMES TOGETHER
Wednesday, Aug 15, 7-8:15 PM | Upper Room
This summer, we’ve been studying the book of James in worship. If you’ve missed a Sunday, join us for a time of reading the entire book aloud together, learning about the structure of James, and praying in response to God’s Word. We will be focused on reading the entire book aloud, in community, just as it was originally experienced.

Each Sunday morning, one or more families takes a turn hosting coffee. Hosting has never been easier, thanks to Kirsten’s Bakery, who generously provides treats. If you are new to hosting, you may request to have someone show you the ropes on Sunday morning.
