We are a diverse congregation comprised of local residents, active and retired military personnel, and permanent and seasonal residents from all other parts of the country. Through a wide variety of activities and ministries for the members of our congregation, we offer many opportunities for worship, fellowship and service to our community.

The presence of the Lord “in your midst” in the wonder of the holy supper is cause for singing. The nearness of the Lord in prayer, in every circumstance, is cause for rejoicing. The coming of one “more powerful” than John, even with his winnowing fork in his hand, is good news—and cause for exultation—for us who are being saved. Great joy is the tone for the third Sunday of Advent. Read the full devotion.

Our Tree of Warmth is up! You can visit the Tree of Warmth in the narthex to help someone in our community. Underwear, socks, gloves, and caps may not seem the ideal Christmas gifts, but ordinary items are often the best gifts a person receives. By taking one of the decorations off the Tree of Warmth and filling its wish list, you will be helping someone stay clean and warm this season. Fulfilled items should be placed under the tree by December 16.
