All Church Mission Study
We invite you to participate in the All-Church Mission Study Conversation Sessions! If you weren’t able to attend the in-person sessions that’s ok – there are online form versions for each session, so you can participate from home.
Spring Musical for K-5th Graders
Presenting “For Goodness Sake” with words and music by Cynthia Wright. This sweet, fun children’s musical retells the familiar lessons of the Ten Commandments through music and drama. The show is set on a typical Sunday morning with a family rushing to get to church. During their car trip to church, they listen to a radio program interpreting each commandment as a song performed by choir.
