On this snowy day, we elected to not have church in person. The message was offered by Rev. Larry Cochran from home with MaryKaye Cochran offering a solo. The story of Jesus inviting the disciples to follow him formed the basis for the message. What does following Jesus mean in our lives today?
On January 18th, Rev. Jim Melson offered the message taken from John 1:29-42.

The encouragement for us was to stay with Jesus through all that we are called to do as we live out our faith. Mark Blankenship led the choir in music.

Come join us at 7:00 PM for our candlelight Christmas Eve service. Experience the presence of God as we celebrate the birth of Jesus.
On December 21st, Rev. Gwen Andrews offered the message from Matthew 1:18-28. This is the story of how an angel spoke to Joseph in a dream that he should take Mary as his wife even though he was at a loss to know what to do. The story of Joseph speaks to us and reminds us that our plans may not work out but God has something better in store for us.
On December 14th, Pastor Larry preached on Matthew 11:2-11. This depicts John the Baptist from prison sending his disciples to ask Jesus if he was the Messiah. Jesus said look around, the blind see, the lame walk, the deaf hear, the dead are raised and good news is being proclaimed to the poor. John had doubts as we all do but when we look around and see what God is doing, we can overcome those doubts.
On December 7th, we unpacked the message given to us from John the Baptist found in Matthew 3:1-12. John challenges us to prepare our hearts for the coming of Jesus, to make a way in the midst of all that is happening in our lives. Brendan Paget served as worship leader on this day. Pastor Larry Cochran offered the message on this day. Mark Blankenship leads us in music.

This message reminds us always to be ready, to be prepared as we live our our faith every day.
