This year's annual Trunk-or-Treat event will be on Wednesday, October 30th from 6-7:30 pm! Due to parking lot traffic, we will be on the first floor of the church and we will use tables instead of trunks. If you are interested in hosting a table, use the link below to sign up!
We are also in need of candy! There are bins outside the Front Office and elevator for your donations.

Calling All Writers! Write for next year's Lenten Devotional
We are seeking people who are willing to write for the Lenten Devotional that will go with this year's series that we will make available to other churches. This year's theme is Mitigated Disaster. We will view the crucifixion as humanity's greatest disaster, and the resurrection as its full mitigation. We will also reflect on our own community's experience with disaster recovery. Writers will be assigned a passage to reflect on, and passages only need to be 150-250 words. Share your perspective, and make a difference in the faith lives of others! To sign up, click here!
