In-person worship was suspended for COVID-19 beginning March 15, 2020, so our videos from that time include virtual worship elements. We also posted our Holy Week worship experience videos here for easy access.
We began livestreaming our complete worship services on August 2, and starting August 23, 2020, these links jump directly to the sermon portion of the worship videos. We resumed in-person worship on October 4, 2020, in the Family Life Center. On January 3, 2021, we resumed two worship services at 8:30 and 11 a.m. in our Sanctuary. Learn about what to expect when worshiping in person here. We will continue to livestream all services, so that we will truly remain together in spirit.
