We are in person+ this weekend in the room where we gather at EMC and simultaneously on zoom. 

Contact the office if you would like the code to join us on zoom.

Sung worship will be led by the Janz family, their song list will be up to listen to later in the week. 

The passage we are reading is Matthew 5:38-48 - 'Loving Indiscriminately' - and Jeff Kornelsen is speaking. 

We are having time within our gathering to remember Myrna Remple and also raise money for the charity that she was involved with by holding a BAKE SALE FOR ALBANIA.

The invitation is to bring baking, bring cash (you can also etransfer - details will be there on Sunday), and to bring a story to share either in written form or told by you. There will be time for that this week.

We will be celebrating Pride Sunday on the last Sunday in September. Stacey (see below) will be our guest speaker that week. There will be cake and other fun extras. We hope you can join us.

A little back story: On Sunday, October 3, 2021 we marked our churches decision to be an inclusive, welcoming and affirming community of people who are making it our business to live out our faith in love.

Stacey Chomiak is an LGBTQ Christian Speaker, artist, author and art director and was our guest speaker and we loved hearing her story.

If you were not able to join us that week, here's a recording of the gathering. It was wonderful. You can watch on Vimeo or find that episode by date on our podcast.
