****STEWARDSHIP SNIPPET****
“God is faithful; by him you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.”
1 Corinthians 1:9
Just like those first disciples whom Jesus told to “Come and see,” you have been called into the Body of Christ, and God is working in your life even if you don’t realize it. Pay attention and steward God’s wonderful gifts carefully and fully.

Seekers and Sponges Sunday Morning ClassMeeting @ 8:30AM In-person and Zoom Click HERE or the button below to join Seekers & Sponges by Zoom. Seekers and Sponges has started a new DVD series for discussion on Sunday: "Embracing Emergence Christianity: Phyllis Tickle on the Church's Next Rummage Sale". Author, historian and keen cultural observer Phyllis Tickle invites us to join her in examining the changing face of Christianity and culture. Phyllis surveys 2000 years of Western history, identifying the great upheavals that occur in Western culture and Christianity every 500 years. The last was the Great Reformation of the 1500’s; the next is happening now. What are the implications of this “Great Emergence,” both culturally and spiritually? What are the key questions and issues that need to be addressed? Where might we be headed next? And, perhaps most importantly, where are you, at this moment? Might you be an emergence Christian? Each of the six sessions in this series begins with a 10 -15 minute video presentation by Phyllis Tickle and then our group will discuss her perspectives.

Exploring the Bible TogetherZoom Bible Study every Tuesday from 6:30pm -7:30pm In our “Exploring the Bible Together” study, we meet by Zoom as a small group for about 45 minutes each week. Our study covers a wide range of topics, examining more closely the history, content, context, development, message, and interpretation of the Bible. As we do this, we grow in our understanding of the relevance and application of the Bible for our lives today. Anyone is welcome to join us - no experience with Bible study (or even the Bible) is necessary! Click here to join: Tuesday Zoom Bible Study |

Three Expressions of the Church
We are part of one church body organized in three expressions — congregations, synods, and the churchwide organization. Each expression has its particular functions but all three together share a common mission of doing God’s work in the world and proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ. Together, they ensure a solid foundation of leadership, active involvement in communities, opportunities for dialogue and diverse perspectives, creative partnerships, and support for members and ministries of the ELCA.
