Ongoing Services & Ministries
ONLINE Bilingual Worship Service - 10:30 am each Sunday
As a bilingual/bicultural, multi-denominational congregation, we express our worship of God each Sunday through music, praise, Scripture, responses, prayer, and weekly celebration of the Eucharist. Our worship style reflects our diverse cultural traditions. Songs are sung in Spanish, English or both. The sermon is normally in English, but simultaneous translation is provided. Several times a year, our children and youth "take over the church" or we "make our own Sunday" where members use their wisdom, talents and gifts to encourage one another.
