October

Friday, October 29 - Church Hymn Festival at 7:30 PM. This year's theme for the Hymn Festival is "Guilt, Grace and Gratitude".
Lutheran theologian Robert Preus once said that one of the best ways to learn the Christian faith, was to "sing the faith into our hearts." Join us on Friday, October 29 at 7:30 p.m. for our third annual Reformation Hymn Festival as we seek to do just that.
Our hymn festival will follow the Heidelberg Catechism's three-fold division of guilt, grace and gratitude. Through the reading of Scripture and our confessions, and through singing the Psalms and the great hymns of the Reformed tradition, we'll be reminded of our guilt before God, the greatness of God's grace toward us in Jesus Christ, and having "sung the faith into our hearts," Lord willing, we will leave with our hearts filled with gratitude.
Sunday, October 31 - Reformation Sunday and Church's 15th Anniversary
