Welcome To Worship

Sunday morning worship is at 10:25 am where we seek to connect God’s ways with our lives through scripture, music and prayer, sometimes with presentations of video, drama, and liturgical dance.

Everyone is welcome at our church! Our building is wheelchair accessible, and children are welcome to stay with their families in the sanctuary, with activity bags available.

Your offering may be dropped off during office hours:   Tues 9-1  Thurs 9-12 and Friday 9-12

Morning Prayer:

Offering daily morning prayers of thanks is an incredible way to start each day. God, the giver of life, allows each of us to wake up to new excitements and beauties each day, so it’s important that we turn to Him and offer up our gratitude. A prayer of gratitude orients our hearts and our minds to focusing on maintaining a joyful spirit despite whatever we may encounter that day.

Thanking the Lord in the morning is also a method of keeping our perspective fixed on what truly matters. Gratitude is a powerful reminder of all we have — and of the eternal love God gives us. Here’s an example of a morning prayer to give thanks for a new day:

Dear Lord, thank you for allowing me to awake to yet another beautiful day. I am grateful for the beauty of the sun and Your other creations. Despite sometimes forgetting to proclaim my thanks, I am overjoyed by the wonders around me. Thank You for my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

Development of our Property

In early to late fall of 2024, our existing church building is being demolished to make way for an exciting new mixed housing apartment building (6 floors) and 10 townhomes. Our new church home will be on the main floor at the corner of Southdale Rd and Jalna Blvd., once the space is ready for occupancy. In the meantime, we are actively searching for a temporary space to hold our worship services while the new building is being constructed. We are so excited to be able to help the community with affordable housing and look forward to continuing our ministry as a church for future years to come.
