By office | Published: October 15, 2026

The link for online worship is below (note: we are continuing a zoom trial this week).  The bulletin can be found by clicking on the picture of the bulletin or by clicking here. ​ Pastor Paul will continue his sermon series “A People Made Ready: Growing Deeper in Christ as We Prepare to Welcome Him Anew” with the sermon “Making Room for God.”

OCTOBER 18, 2026 — “MAKING ROOM FOR GOD”
Scripture: Luke 10:38–42 | Theme: I AM MAKING ROOM. | One thing is needed.

Sometimes the things that distract us are not bad things at all—they are good responsibilities, good work, and good intentions that have filled every available space. In the home of Martha and Mary, Jesus gently names the danger of being “worried and distracted by many things” and points us again toward the one thing that is needed: his presence. Before the busy seasons of Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas arrive, this Sunday invites us to ask: Is there room in my schedule, my attention, and my heart for Christ? Come and discover how making room for God can reorder everything else.

Sunday, November 1st will be Amy Ward’s Celebration of Life at 11 am. Worship on Sunday, November 1st, will be at 10 am. Communion for November will be on November 8th.

A People Made Ready: “Listening for God’s Voice”

OCTOBER 11, 2026 — “LISTENING FOR GOD’S VOICE”
Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:1–10 | Theme: I AM LISTENING. | “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”

Our lives are surrounded by many voices—news, schedules, worries, expectations, and constant noise. In the story of young Samuel, God calls again and again until Samuel learns to recognize the voice of the Lord. This week we will explore what it means to become a listening people: attentive to Scripture, prayer, worship, the wisdom of others, and the quiet movements of God’s Spirit. A prepared church is not simply a busy church; it is a church willing to stop, listen, discern, and respond. Join us as we pray with Samuel: “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”
