This summer, we’re revisiting some of the Bible stories many of us first heard as children—stories of Abraham, Ruth, David, and more. They’re familiar, even comforting, but they’re also deeper and more honest than we often remember. Beneath the surface, these stories speak into real life: forgiveness that’s hard, faith that wavers, courage that costs something. Together, we’ll take a fresh look and listen again for what God is doing—not just back then, but right here among us. We worship on Saturday at 5 pm in the Sanctuary and on Sunday at 9:15 am in the Sanctuary or at 10:30 am in the Chapel. We value children of all ages in worship. Busy Bags are available on posts outside the sanctuary and chapel doors and children’s bulletins and crayons are also available. Activity and noise by children are welcome parts of our life together! Ushers can help with any of these options
