Welcome
WELCOME! We're so glad you've stopped by...
As you move through the pages of our site, we hope you capture a glimpse of who we are and of our life together.
We believe a balanced life of faith means that we care for one another, reach beyond ourselves, explore our faith and worship together.
So we care, reach, explore and worship. We're not perfect people by any means but we invite you into a journey of living more fully into the marvelous grace of God we've found in following Jesus Christ.
It is with mixed emotions that we announce the upcoming retirement of our long-tenured Church Administrator, Mary Kerasavich. After 40+ years of faithful and dedicated service, she will be stepping down from her role on December 31, 2025.

Hanging of the Greens
Please join us for a special service during Sunday Morning Worship on Sunday, December 7 as we celebrate the 2nd week of advent and decorate the sanctuary for the Christmas Season, followed by a Black Light performance in the Chapel.
We Need Your Cookies!
GROW (God Renewing Our Women) invites you to join us on Saturday, December 13, at 9am for a pot-luck breakfast. Our program will be filling cookie tins for each of the Loaves of Love families so please bring 5 1/2 dozen of your favorite cookies to share. This will provide two of your cookies per tin. Since the cookies will not be wrapped, please do not include nuts or peanut butter in your recipe. This is a joy-filled event which will bless you as well as our families. Please plan to attend.
It's Time to Put on Our Halos
Have you noticed that our Angel Tree is up and decorated with angels? Each angel represents either a Loaves of Love child or family and contains a $20 gift suggestion. If you wish, you may take an angel or two and follow the instructions attached to each angel. The deadline for all presents is Sunday, December 14. Thank you.
On Line Advent Study
Come join us as we begin this Advent study with a new book and new author.

Let's get ready to Jingle and Sing
Elam is doing Christmas Caroling on Sunday, December 14. Please plan to arrive no later than 5:30pm. (Note: The Eagles game will be over by then.) Hot chocolate and donuts await our return. This will happen only if we have enough participants. Please sign up on the poster in the narthex so that we may count on you. Thank you.
Do you love our sweet treats during fellowship hour?
Sign up sheets available for coffee fellowship slots in the lounge. Make sure to grab your time before they are all gone!
MATS OF LOVE PROJECT
We continue to participate in the Mats for Love, made out of plastic bags and plastic tablecloths. If you happen to have any bags which you are not using, please donate them to this Project. A container is available for your use. We had a presentation on how to cut the bags into strips, knot them together, assemble into a ball and then knit/crochet into a mat at the GROW meeting on Saturday morning, October 18th. We will gather again to work on this project during our next Mosaic Sunday on January 25th. Please consider joining us.
Sunday School has you covered
Sunday School and nursery for infants through sixth grade are available during the worship service. It is held in the Children’s Day Out rooms (follow hallway past restrooms all the way to the end to room 107). Miss Bonnie and Miss Joy will be waiting for you there.
