Worship Service - August 20

The livestream worship broadcast begins Sunday mornings a little before 11:00 am and is saved online afterward. (If there is ever a livestreaming problem, check our YouTube page HERE and our Facebook page HERE.)

WELCOME TO WORSHIP!

Meditation Thought for Worship: God is always sowing seeds of love. Sometimes they fall on hardened hearts, or distracted minds, or shallow souls. But God the Sower is always at work. Let us have hearts, minds, and souls that are ready to let God’s seeds plant deep within us. Let us grow both up and down, with outside actions and inside roots. And as we grow, let us take part in sharing more of God’s seeds of love in the world.
