We extend a cordial welcome to each person worshipping with us in person or online. We hope the service will leave you feeling renewed, fulfilled, and challenged. God bless you all!
The Cross of Lilies last Sunday was given in memory of Dr. Ned Downing and to the glory of God by the Downing family (Helen, Callie & Ken). The flowers for the worship service today are given in memory of Ruth Ellen Lee by Ernie Lee.

Every Sunday, there are people who work behind the scenes to help make each service meaningful and wonderful for all of us and our online visitors. We thank those heroes of our faith: control room and live streaming techs, videographers, video editors, sound editors, font editors, and many others.
