Worship, Aug 9, 8:30 & 11am

VIDEO. Threat or Rescuer?  It’s been a wearying storm-tossed night for the disciples. A mysterious figure appears, walking on the choppy sea. Rev. Elizabeth Graham points out that like Peter, when we are in rough waters, fear often bullies our faith away, leaving us fishing for assurances and questioning what our heart knows.

Pastor Andrew has recently shared his experiences on his recent trip with other faith leaders to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.  This fragile area is in danger from oil drilling which involves severe risks to wildlife, spill-cleanup difficulties, and accelerated climate change. View videos of his class along with other videos, photos and write-ups about the faith leaders trip to this deeply spiritual place. You can help.
