| On Sundays at 8:15 AM in the chapel
and at 10:15 AM in the sanctuary our church family
gathers to Worship. These hours are the heart of
our life together. We come to be nourished. . .through
fine music, preaching, and innovative and traditional
worship. People from our church take part as greeters,
ushers, lay leaders, teachers, choir members, and
child care providers.
Each Sunday the warm spirit of worship extends
to the Coffee Hour where old friends meet and
new friendships begin. Our ministers and church
members continue to care for one another during
the week through visitation and shared activities.
In the summer, from the last Sunday in June through
the first in September, there is only one Sunday
service at 9:30 AM. Summer Church School meets
during worship. All ages are welcome.
Those wishing to provide FLOWERS for Sunday morning
worship may do so by contacting Midge Bourne,
743-7130. Midge also organizes volunteers to deliver
the flowers to the ill and shut-in immediately
after services.
Most worship services are video taped by the
BELL TOWER MINISTRY crew. Time and talent is always
needed to video tape and edit. If you know someone
who is not able to attend church on a regular
basis and would enjoy watching the taped versions,
please contact the church staff. Video tapes are
stored in the church library and can be checked
out by recording the date and your name in the
notebook provided.
