Gathering on the Lawn

This summer, we return to one of our summertime favorites —Gathering on the Lawn! We hear from some of our own at these gatherings, which are held in the Courtyard during the Sunday School hour, 9:45-10:40 am!

Grab coffee from the Chapel and a chair in the Courtyard to hear testimony about how God is moving in the lives of people from our church. In case of wet weather, meet us in the Chapel instead!
