7th Discernment Session and Listening Session - Sunday, April 26th, (Details TBD)

These discernment sessions are important for everyone who intends to vote at the end of our eight month process. Due to RS 211 (the resolution that outlines the parameters of voting to change our relationship with the UMC), the vote happens among people who are professing members of the congregation.

If you are not a member, attending these discernment sessions is the best pathway. Attendance at 6 out of 8 sessions, will qualify for membership. If you are unsure of your status as a member of this congregation, please talk with Pastor Melissa.

Visit https://www.ne-discerners.org/ for complete information about news relating to the United Methodist Church in regards to the current conversation around how to move forward as a church, as well as for information about the disaffiliation process.

Catholic Communion services are hosted at the church every Saturday afternoon at 4 PM. During the summer, the sanctuary hosts a few Catholic masses; dates for 2020 TBD.
