Calendar & Events

---

  On May 20 we will meet

for our weekly 

Regional Zoom Bible Study 

from 11-12noon. 

Come, and join us. 

All that's needed is a Bible,

 and a hot beverage!

 Martin Luther supposedly once said "And if the world were to end tomorrow, I'd still plant an apple tree today." 

 On the 

Day of Pentecost, 

Sunday, May 24, 

before the service at 9:45AM 

we will bless our two new apple trees in our church garden - 

as signs of great hope. 

Please come and join us! 

 Mark your calendars for 

May 24 at 3PM, 

and join us for our next 

Conversations Across the Church Watch Party! 

We’ll be joined by voices from our Global Mission partners: the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land (ELCJHL), Iglesia Evangelica Luterana Unida, and Iglesia Luterana del Perú (IL-P). 

Together, we will reflect on a shared question: Where do you see life in your church?

Come ready to listen, be inspired, and consider where you see signs of life in your own context.

 Registration is open
