Summer Worship Schedule
For the next few Sundays we will have the opportunity to receive our Sunday message from guest ministers. Our new minister Rev. Hoeun Lee will join us in July but will be taking the first three Sundays as vacation as the family moves from Saskatchewan and settles in this new community. It is a very common practice for ministers to take vacation at the start of a new call, particularly when they are moving a distance to their new church home. For more infomation visit:

Book Club - My Name is Lucy Bartonby Elizabeth Strout - Saturday, June 3, 2023 My Name is Lucy Barton by Elizabeth Strout Lucy Barton is recovering slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her mother, to whom she hasn’t spoken for many years, comes to see her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy’s childhood in Amgash, Illinois, seems to reconnect them, but just below the surface lie the tension and longing that have informed every aspect of Lucy’s life.
