Join Our Sunday worship: Pentecost derives its name from the Jewish festival celebrating the harvest and the giving of the law on Mount Sinai fifty days after Passover. Fifty days after Easter, we celebrate the Holy Spirit as God’s presence within and among us. In Acts the Spirit arrives in rushing wind and flame, bringing God’s presence to all people. Paul reminds us that though we each have different capacities, we are unified in the Spirit that equips us with these gifts. Jesus breathes the Holy Spirit on his disciples, empowering them to forgive sin. We celebrate that we too are given the breath of the Holy Spirit and sent out to proclaim God’s redeeming love to all the world.

Worship Service: Pentecost reminds us that the Holy Spirit is with us and available to us. Like the saints, we can foster our own “little” Pentecosts, over and over again. We gather in this time and space, breathing in the Spirit's invitation to connect, learn, and answer the call to justice and action. If you are visiting or new to our faith family, please fill out a yellow guest card and put it in the offering plate so we have a record of your presence today. Come back and worship with us each Sunday at 10 a.m. The Sacrament of Holy Communion is offered to all worshiping with us. You may come forward for the sacraments or cross your arms across your chest for a blessing instead.
Fellowship Time: After worship, join us for adult education, conversation, and coffee.
