Calendar of Upcoming Church Activities

We will be having a time of prayer in the Parlor for the next eight Sundays between 9:30
and 9:45 A.M.  Our prayer intention is to pray for the life of the church  to ask for God's guidance
on how we are being called to be "Church" in this time and place. How is it that God is calling us to
share His love and light with the world? How are we being called to serve?
