****STEWARDSHIP SNIPPET****
"When he had said this, as they were watching, Jesus was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. While he was going and they were gazing up toward heaven, suddenly two men in white robes stood by them. They said, ‘Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up toward heaven?’ "
Acts 1: 9-11
The men who watch Jesus ascend needed to be told to stop staring at heaven, to get busy in the world that needs Jesus’ gospel. Many today need to stop “staring at heaven” and focus on the work God has for us in the world, which still needs god’s love.

Seekers and Sponges Sunday Morning ClassClick HERE or the button below to join Seekers & Sponges by Zoom. This Sunday May 21 Seekers and Sponges will start study around a five part video series by Marcus Borg titled "Embracing An Adult Faith: What it Means to Be Christian". The intent is to help those seeking a richer understanding of issues in contemporary Christian practice and theology. Who was Jesus? Who is God/ What is salvation? How do we practice our faith? How do we live in community? In our class, everyone in our group becomes a teacher for one another, sharing experiences and perspectives that facilitate a respectful, enlightening approach to adult learning. Please join us in the multimedia classroom at the end of the hallway. You will find the discussion engaging, insightful, and challenging, and it will expand how you look at your faith! Click HERE to join by Zoom. |

Exploring the Bible TogetherIn 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. We have begun a new study series on the Gospel of Matthew. This church year the majority of our gospel readings will come from Matthew. It is a beautiful writing which shares the story of Jesus in a pwerful way. 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 |
