Title or Theme: What Will You Carry? (also, a new member ceremony today)
Speaker: Rev. Amy McCormick
Worship Associate:  Marsha Donahue

The Rev. Douglas Taylor once gave a sermon titled; Healing Your Religious Past.

RE & Children’s Programs

For Families with Children

      We have a busy and fun Religious Exploration program for children. On Sundays, two adults lead a group from the sanctuary to the classroom area downstairs. You are welcome to go with your child to help them settle in, or let them go downstairs with the group.      Activities change week-to-week, usually including a craft or movement activity tied to the theme of the worship service or the season. Toys and books are also available.     Famiies can also listen to the service in our nursery room downstairs if that works best for your family.      Children are also very welcome to remain upstairs if they prefer, either in a seat, or utilizing our Children's Corner. We also have a youth group for Middle and High Schoolers. If you have any interest in joining, just ask Cayla Miller or Finn ... continued
