Weddings
Marriage is a gift from God to all humankind for the well-being of the entire human family. We consider it our honor and privilege to be a resource for couples who wish to profess their lifelong commitment to each other in a service of Christian marriage. Our newly renovated Sanctuary provides a beautiful space for worship and celebration. Call the church office to set up an appointment with one of the pastors.
Funerals
Funerals provide surviving family members and friends a caring, supportive environment in which to recognize the death of a loved one and give thanks for the person’s life. Our Christian faith teaches us that death is not the end of what God has in store for us. We live in the hope that we will one day be reunited with those who have already died.
We take the opportunity to celebrate a person’s life in the service and we love to incorporate personal thoughts or music from family members or friends to make the service feel more connected. Funerals are the first step in the healing process. Sometimes families like to use our fellowship hall to host a reception for funeral guests after the service. Check with office to see about reserving space.
Baptisms
We are thrilled to celebrate baptisms with people of any age. We celebrate adults making a thoughtful choice and of course those who are babies and will live into the promises made on their baptismal day. We believe baptism is a community event where
the church, the one being baptized (or their parents) and God promise to love, guide and be with the one who is baptized. Call the church office to set up an appointment with one of the pastors.
