Bible Study:
Lutheran Lens of Christian Basics
Wednesdays, 7:00 pm
Sundays, 6:30 pm
We will explore the text of the Small Catechism and some of the scriptures that guided Luther in his explanations of the basics of the Christian faith, including the Ten Commandments, Baptism, Communion, and Prayer. Whether you have the Small Catechism memorized or have never heard of it, you are welcome to participate in this topical Bible study. The Sunday session will cover the same material as the previous Wednesday. All sessions are offered in person as well as online through Zoom and last approximately an hour before we end in communal prayer. Members and non-members are welcome to participate, so invite a friend to explore scripture and the Lutheran approach to the basics of Christian faith with you! Neither registrations nor any materials are required.

Service of Hope and Healing
Thursday, September 10, 6:30 pm
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
This Service of Hope and Healing invites you to lay down your burdens at the foot of the cross. Filled with scripture, song, and prayer, this service offers a quiet, reflective space to dwell in God’s promise of hope and healing. Whether you are dealing with illness, grief, anxiety or another kind of hardship, this service offers peace. Service meets in the sanctuary at 6:30 pm and lasts approximately 30-45 minutes.
Murder Mystery Dinner
Saturday, September 12, 5:00 pm
At 5:00pm on September 12th, a troupe of actors from Mystery’s Most Wanted will fill the basement with mystery and laughter as we eat dinner together and sort out the great Whodunit of the night. Tickets are $25/person for this adult-only event. Buy your tickets now for this unique event by contacting the office.
Messy Church
Friday, September 18
6:00 - 8:00 pm
At Messy Church, all ages come together in a creative, Christ-centered environment to hear God’s Word and talk about how to apply it to our daily lives through crafts and avctivities. We begin our service with a family-style dinner, then we move into a time of flexible, self-paced exploration, then we end together celebrating God’s Good News for us. All are welcome!
In September we will hear reassuring words from scripture, reminding us that God cares for us and God is with us, even when we're a little nervous, as we sometimes are at the start of a new school year!

YES Worship
Sunday, October 4, 4:00pm
YES Worship is specifically designed to be a fully-interactive worship service for families with younger children where we say YES to every request of “Can I help with that?”. Through an abbreviated version of the Sunday liturgy, children are invited to bring their enthusiasm, their joy, and their curiosity to every element of worship. The service will last approximately 30-45 minutes.
