Gathered to Worship, Sent to Bless
Our faith community was formed in a tradition that declares all of life is worship. Whether we work or play, study or rest, or whatever we do, we do all for the glory of God. We come from different walks of life, different occupations, schools, and neighborhoods. Gathering to worship each week, we are reminded that we belong to God. Our individual stories find their place in the great story of redemption that God in Christ is bringing about.
Our worship forms us and nourishes us for our work in the world. The door out of the sanctuary is the door to our mission fields – our families, our schools, our workplaces, our neighborhoods. God sends us into the world to participate in his great work of redemption, each with our own gifts, tasks, and calling. The joys and successes of our week’s labors, the tears and the failures, we bring back with us to the sanctuary. There we find grace, belonging, and refreshment, and then are sent out once again to bless. This weekly rhythm of being gathered to worship and sent to bless gives shape to our lives and faith.
Our Worship Community
We are a congregation made up of people from a variety of Christian traditions and backgrounds. Ours is a community that is growing in faith, but also one where we can express honest questions and doubt. Our worship is blended, combining the best of the historical Christian church with contemporary music. We proudly sing with our organ or with our worship band – and sometimes both at once! All music, liturgy, and instructions for worship are provided, making our services welcoming and hospitable for visitors. Dress is casual, and we enjoy a time of fellowship together after our worship service.
