Read our 2025 Annual Report to Congregation

Our mid-week vespers devotions will focus on several aspects of life: 

Finance (Mar4)  (Do we have enough? How do we become generous? What is life worth?)

Family (Mar 11) (How do we define family in the current day? What do we do when family relationships turn sour?) 

Mortality (Mar 18) (Do we fear death? How do we grieve and mourn the loss of a loved one? How does a congregation deal with the loss of key leader(s)? How do we plan for so that others do not have extra burdens?)

Each of these topics have an impact on our lives from the very beginning of our lives; we can have long discussions about them: our anxieties, fears, anger, worry, longings, jealousies, etc. … and we can do it without ever including God, faith, or the church in the content of our discussions. We’ll contemplate these topics from a faith perspective, as we face the various fears, truths, or trust concerns we might have. How do we

hear the words of Jesus in the midst of challenges?

Through conversation, prayer, study, and meditation, we’ll listen for God’s directions, forgiveness, and strength. Each week we’ll end our vespers with Holden Evening Prayer.
You are encouraged to come, enjoy a meal, fellowship, and grow in faith and strength.
