February 28 | Sunday Worship

​Despite the covenant God established with him, Abraham still had a difficult and doubt-filled relationship with God. We have inherited this covenant and we also have a difficult and doubt-filled relationship with God, at times. Abraham is a mirror we can hold up and see ourselves.

Rev. Tonja's sermon, "Mirror, Mirror" is based on Genesis 17:1-18, CEB. 


Participate in worship on our YouTube channel beginning at 10:30AM. Sing along with the hymns and follow along with the digital bulletin here.

Ash Wednesday

2/15/2021

Despite the ongoing pandemic, we will once again join with our friends from First Presbyterian Church for our annual Ash Wednesday service – this year, however, our collaborative service will take place on our YouTube channel.

The Rev. Dr. Felipe N. Martinez will deliver our message for this joint service, and we will experience a unique (and safe) self-imposition of ashes to mark the beginning of the season of Lent and a period of reflection, repentance, and recommitment to our spiritual journey. Both Dianne Sprunger and our own Travis Whaley will provide meditative and uplifting music to ground us in this moving service.

You will need a candle and communion elements ready for your participation from home. Participants will be asked to perform a self-imposition of ashes using soot from a candle. Please light a candle at the beginning of the service. When the time comes for the imposition of ashes, you will be asked to extinguish the flame, to rub the wick between your fingers, and to make the sign of the cross on your own forehead.

Though this will be different from how we have traditionally experienced Ash Wednesday, it promises to be a spiritually moving experience. 

Rev. Dr. Felipe N. Martinez's sermon, "Following Jesus with Urgency", is based on 
Luke 9:51-62, NRSV. Participate in worship on our YouTube channel beginning at 7:00M. Sing along with the hymns and follow along with the digital bulletin here.

Let us know you're here! If you are joining us for online worship services, please let us know with this short form: Special Worship Attendance. ​

February 14 | Sunday Worship

The story of Jesus’ transfiguration comes at the midpoint of Mark’s gospel. Leading up to this powerful story we learn of Jesus’ teachings and healings. Following this supernatural occurrence we follow Jesus’ journey to the cross. This makes the miracle of the transfiguration an excellent transition between the seasons of Epiphany and Lent.

Participate in online worship on Sunday, February 14, to hear more about the rich historical symbolism in the story of the transfiguration. 
Rev. Tonja's sermon, "Continental Divide", is based on Mark 9:2-9, NRSV.

Participate in worship on our YouTube channel beginning at 10:30AM. Sing along with the hymns and follow along with the digital bulletin here.

Simon’s mother-in-law becomes the original deacon in this story from Mark’s gospel! The word translated as “serve” in the NRSV is diakonos, which literally means “to kick up dust” – as in an urgent, ambitious, scene-stealing action. It is also the same word translated as “ministry.”
 
The scriptures do not record the name of Simon’s mother-in-law, but she was a veritable powerhouse of a woman, who engages in active ministry, kicks up dust, and gets some serious work done. She is a trail-blazing pioneer in Mark’s gospel.


Rev. Tonja's sermon, "Kicking Up Dust", is based on Mark 1:29-39. Participate in worship on our YouTube channel beginning at 10:30AM. Sing along with the hymns and follow along with the digital bulletin here.
