"Wherever two or three are gathered in my name, I will be in the midst." Matthew 18:20
All are invited to join us in worship. We are a friendly church, always welcoming visitors warmly. Those who choose to join us find themselves surrounded by a loving and caring congregation of believers. We have opportunities for worship, music, Christian education, social groups and mission outreach.
Celebrating 100 Years of Worship
Under the leadership of our pastor, John W. Shedwick, we strive to be a positive Christian presence in our community. Our connectedness to PC (USA), our local church, and each other extends beyond our church doors on Sunday mornings as we try to lead lives according to His plan, using the gifts He has given us individually as we work to show God's love and Grace here on Earth.
100 Years and Counting
Over a hundred years ago, a group of believers, meeting to study the work of God, sought to establish a church "to keep alive the religious sentiment of the community". The first Presbyterian worship service was held in December of 1910. Throughout those years, our church has been blessed with the leadership of many excellent pastors who lead our members in Christian endeavors that strengthened their faith and encouraged good works.
RESUME 11:00 AM WORSHIP ON SEPTEMBER 12
On September 12 four collages of 100th Anniversary pictures will be on display in the Narthex--also, the displays will be in Fellowship Hall on September 19 during coffee hour -- we've posted a few on our Photo Gallery Page
Our new pictorial directories are in - and they look beautiful.
Each person (couple/family) who had their picture taken for the directory will get a free copy. They will be in the Narthex on Sunday, August 15. Your name will be on the front cover. Please pick yours up. Elders and other officers will have their copies in their box in the office.
