Looking at What We Cannot See

Sermon | June 7, 2015

Trinity Sunday: Belief

Sermon | May 31, 2015

May 31, 2015, The Rev. Kate Wesch

Where are you in your journey of belief? Can you identify with Nicodemus somewhere along his trajectory of skepticism, to belief, to belief in Christ?

Ascension Sunday

Sermon | May 17, 2015

May 17, 2015, The Rev. Kate Wesch (5 pm service)

Jesus is preparing a place for us to go, but in the meantime, there is much for us to do here on earth.
