Prayer Requests
Welcome
Thank you for visiting our website!
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.

Last GROW Meeting of the Year - Saturday, May 8
Teresa Verdecchio has a burden for people to be fully known and fully loved by God without shame, fear, or condemnation. She is a wife, mother, grandmother, mentor, author, and teacher. Pastor Teresa has co-labored with her husband, Dave, for over 30 years in ministry, reaching the hearts of men and women domestically and abroad. Together, they are committed to bringing hope to the hopeless, ministering the love of Christ through sound teaching, and tangibly expressing genuine compassion to see broken lives restored.
Hymns for Sunday Service
We Can Pray - Weekly Community Prayer
Today is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. As we pray these
familiar words, O Lord, help each one of us to remember to rejoice in the gift of each day
and all the blessings that we receive within each day. Help us to number the blessings,
great and small and hold them dear. The blessings of a good night sleep, the beauty of
the sun rising and the birds singing as a new day begins. The blessing of a friend’s smile,
a call from a child, and the flowers on a dogwood tree that has been dormant through
the cold winter. The blessing of knowing that you O Lord, are with us every moment as
we experience all of these. Thanks to you for your companionship and your guidance
which we rely on to get us through each day. Thanks be to you, O Lord.
Amen.
Meditation to Share
The earth has burst forth in brilliant color, aroma, and sound. Spring! Perfect for a time
of meditation. Let me suggest that you find a place out of doors and make yourself
comfortable so that you can see, smell and hear creation around you. What seems to
catch your attention; green grass, yellow dandelion, the sound of birds chirping or the
aroma of flowers? Settle into whatever it is and stay with it, bringing your mind and
senses back as they drift. Stay in this place that you have found; this place that has
provided you with a time of quiet and a time with our Creator. Spring is the perfect time
for this way of restoring your spirit.
Blessings Dear Friends, Randy C. Schaffer
