American Stories
January 19, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. Online and in-person Rev. Dr. Matthew Johnson
On the eve of both The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the Presidential Inauguration, we’ll reflect on American stories. There is not one, but many American stories – about who we have been, are and will be. These contested stories shape our future. Before I depart on the second half of my sabbatical, we’ll “gird our loins and prepare our hearts” for what is to come.

Cupcake decorating party
February 8th, 2025 from 1-3 pm in Deale Hall
We will be practicing decorating cupcakes. Supplies will be provided, but ideas of what you want to learn/practice are welcome. You will be able to take cupcakes home (or leave them for Sunday social hour)
Children are welcome. 6 spots are available for $15 donation to the church per person. Reserve your spot with Katy by January 17th!
The Eco Justice Team would like to extend a huge thank you to all who have made monetary donations to the Free Pantry in recent months. We were able to fully restock the table in Deale Hall thanks to your generosity! Though you are still welcome to add food donations directly to the pantry (especially refrigerated or frozen items) or to the table in Deale Hall, this restock will help the pantry have a consistent supply of shelf-stable items for those in need this winter.
