  1. February 22, 2026: Lent, Part 1

    13H AGO

    February 22, 2026: Lent, Part 1

    This Sunday, we invite you to join us as we begin this season of Lent together as a community. As we consider the path that Jesus walked on earth - showing us the way of love, justice and peace - we are invited to examine the ways that our faith, worldview and understanding of Jesus have been shaped and corrupted by colonization and empire. We’ll be spending some time reflecting on how centering the Eucharist/Communion table leads us to the centering of Jesus - in our gatherings, our faith community and our lives. In what ways might this centering lead us to a deeper understanding of the justice of Jesus?

    February 15, 2026 - Names of God, Part 5 - Emmanuel, God With Us.

    Despite 100 other names or titles for God, the writers of the New Testament want us to hear that God is safe and God is good and God is right here, right now — and that makes all the difference.

    February 01, 2026: The Names of God, Part 4: The Sound of Silence: When Faith Gets it Wrong

    We’ve always been told that Abraham’s silent obedience on the mountain was the ultimate act of faith. But what if his silence was actually the problem? This Sunday, we’re digging into one of the Bible’s most disturbing stories to ask: Does God want our blind submission, or does God want our holy protest? Join us as we consider the name Jehovah Jireh, not just as the God who provides a sacrifice, but as the God who provides a rescue even when our own religious understanding leads us astray. Come see why the greatest provision on the mountain wasn't just a ram, but a God who refuses to let our misunderstandings have the final word.

  4. January 25, 2026: Names of God, Part 3: The Holy Advocate

    January 25, 2026: Names of God, Part 3: The Holy Advocate

    This Sunday we continue in our “Names of God” sermon series by looking at a name that Jesus gives to the Holy Spirit: The Advocate. We will look at how Jesus describes the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the lives of those who follow him. We will also look at the role of the Holy Spirit in the ministry of Jesus and the early church. As we look into the scriptures we can find encouragement in knowing that the Holy Spirit is with us and guiding us into truth.

    January 18, 2026: The Names of God, Part 2

    The story of Hagar is filled is a difficult read, filled with dark undertones of slavery, misuse, oppression and desperation. This Sunday we continue our series on the names of God, by looking at this story of Hagar, as she becomes the only person in the Old Testament to assign a name to God, El Roi, “The God who sees me.” Together we will explore the rich meaning of this naming in the context of Hagar’s life and experiences. Why was this name so important and so powerful to Hagar? What does the wider story tell us about our relationships to others? And how does this show God’s character today?

    January 11, 2025: Service and Learning: Recap & Reflections

    Join us for our Service and Learning Recap and Reflection gathering. Rather than dividing up around the region like we normally do on Service and Learning weekends, we gathered in the Sanctuary for some singing together, updates from the Peace in Action Team, and some videos that both look back at our serving and learning together in 2025, and to look forward to this coming year!

    January 04, 2026: The Names of God, Part 1: The Personal Name of God.

    Does God have a name? Sometimes it is translated in English as Yahweh, sometimes as Jehovah but most translations of the Bible instead render it LORD. Why is this so confusing and what can we learn about God from this name recorded in the story of Exodus.

  8. December 21, 2025: Advent, Week 4: Joy

    12/22/2025

    December 21, 2025: Advent, Week 4: Joy

    Advent, Week 4: Joy – Resilient Joy: The Lord is Near. As we are nearing the end of Advent, we look forward to the “good news of great joy for all people” that the angels proclaimed in Luke 2. But joy is sometimes elusive, and it can ebb and flow with the ups and downs of life. This week we will look at Phillipians 4 and at Paul’s instruction to believers to “rejoice in the Lord always”. Is that even possible?!?. We will see Paul’s basis for a resilient joy throughout the seasons of life: “The Lord is near”
