SUMMARY:High School Summer Youth Trip

With adult chaperones\, we will visit museums and learning centers in Alabama and Georgia to embody the prophetic call to “…do justice\, love kindness\, and walk humbly with God.” For seven days\, students will learn and process Jesus’ call to love our neighbors. The King Museum and the Legacy Museum are two of the most significant places we’ll visit. \n

SUMMARY:Worship (Sa)
DESCRIPTION:Saturday evening worship is a contemplative communion service. Whichever pastor is preaching on Sunday\, preaches and leads worship on Saturday night. The service is guided by a contemplative sense: a slower pace\, room for silence\, and a simpler service order. The altar is on the main floor\, and much of the music is led from a piano within the gathered community. The service is generally about 45 minutes long\, with 40-50 people regularly gathering. After worship\, there is a social time with non-alcoholic beverages\, wine\, beer\, and finger food like cheese and crackers\, dip\, and sweets. \nJoin the Livestream
