Welcome

Greetings to you and welcome. As we continue in the ever-changing environment of this pandemic, please know that we welcome you to our community of faith, of hope, and of love. We presently are offering in-person worship on Sunday (see our Service Times). Lots of people are working hard to create sacred space on our website, Facebook, YouTube, and other online avenues. If that is where your comfort is, please join us that way. Please check back here often to discover ways we are expanding engagement and other opportunities. We hope you find what you are looking for: an exciting ministry, a place for spiritual growth, directions, service or event times, more information about who we are, what we do, something about our approach to Christianity, or a place to simply be. Most of all we hope you find your experience here an invitation to join us — for an event, for a return to this website, or for a lifetime.

God’s grace and peace,
Scott+
The Very Reverend Scott Hunter, Dean
