THIS WEEKEND IN WORSHIP
Summer Series: American Idols
3D Worship - UP! with Pastor Gregg DeMey
2 Kings 18:1-8

"I lift up my eyes to the mountains
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
the maker of heaven and earth." ~ Psalm 121:1-2

Worship is ONLINE here or via FACEBOOK.

SUMMER PRAYER GUIDES
Summer Prayer Guides based on the Psalms from the Lectionary are available on the credenzas in the back of the Worship Center. We created these flexible and portable prayer guides to help connect us to God and stay open to the Spirit this summer. These psalms will also shape part of our daily audio devotions over the summer.
