June 20: returned to worship in our sanctuary. Sunday is the fourth Sunday of Pentecost. We will continue to take precautions.

All services will be livestreamed until further notice, no matter where the service is held. The sermon text for the day is Mark 4:35-41. This is the story of Christ Calming the Sea. He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” Communion will be celebrated.
