Celebrating the Lords Supper & Services of Wholeness (Healing)
The
Lord's Supper: We
celebrate the sacrament of the Lord's Supper at least once a month,
typically on the first Sunday. Our Presbyterian tradition
believes that the invitation to the Lord's supper is to be
extended to all who have been baptized, remembering that access to
the Table is not a right conferred upon the worthy, but a privilege
given to the undeserving who come in faith, repentance, and love.
Even those who doubt or whose trust is wavering are invited to come
to the Table in order to be assured of God's love and grace in Jesus
Christ.

Services of Wholeness(Healing): Approximately 4 times per year our Sunday morning Service of Worship is a Service of Wholeness (Healing). During these services there are extended times for silent reflection and prayers for wholeness and healing for ourselves, those we love, and all creation. As a way of enacting our prayers and remembering God's promise and love, we offer anointing with oil for those who desire to receive that sign.
In 2008 we will have a Service of Wholeness during the morning Service of Worship on the following dates:
- March 9
- June 15
- September 21
- December 14
