Saint Matthew Day

September 18, 2022: Saint Matthew Day Picnic

This will be the first day of Sunday School and first Sunday with our new schedule of two services. Three eagle scout projects will be dedicated.

Saint Matthew Day will culminate with an all-church picnic. A cookout with lots of homemade side dishes and hopefully an ice cream truck since the theme of Sunday School is “Food Truck Party.” There will be yard games, both old fashioned and hew. Let us know if you have any favorite games you would like to have us run. Lots of fun for all!

As we begin the new Sunday morning schedule on Sept. 18, a few reminders about the worship services.

  • The 8:30 service will require masks and social distancing. The service will be fully spoken, with no music during the service, and it will be limited to 30 minutes. Weather-permitting, the service will be held in the new outdoor worship space the first several weeks, until the weather turns too cold.  The service will not be streamed. It will include scripture reading, children’s time, sermon, and communion.
  • Food for fellowship time will be available starting at 9:00 until after the later service. Please find a time to chat and enjoy!
  • Christian Formation time will be held between the services, from 9:15-10:00. Sunday School for up to grade 6 will be held in the Fellowship Hall. The Adult Forum will be held in the library.
  • The 10:15 service will have a full liturgy, following a similar pattern to the worship services we have been having at 9:30. There are no Covid-related restrictions at this worship service, and the service will be streamed.
