Wednesday Night Live
A New Midweek Tradition
Wednesday Night Worship

Life doesn’t always leave room for Sunday mornings, so we’re creating a new opportunity to gather as a church family in the middle of the week. Join us for a joyful, intergenerational worship service where families can worship, sing, and grow together. Whether Wednesday is your primary worship service or simply another chance to reconnect, everyone is welcome.
Come as you are. Worship together. Grow together.

Parent Connect: Technology, social media, and AI

What makes American Religion “American”?
Oct 14, 21, & 28, 6:00pm, Pilgrim Hall. Led by Rev. Dr. Jonathan Redding, Associate Professor of Religion, Neb Wesleyan University
What makes American Religion “American”? No other country in the world does religion like the United States, which is both good and bad. Discover American Religion through a historical-intersectional lens, highlighting how the best things about religion in the USA can often be the worst. We will expand our lens beyond Christianity to examine various unique American religious movements while also studying how the history we’ve been taught about American religion can (and often does) differ radically from the reality.
