Our Mission: To walk with Christ and neighbor, healing brokenness together.
Halloween Safety Tips:
Be creative about celebrating Halloween this year. There are great ideas found at https://lincoln.ne.gov/city/covid19/resident-resources.htm#safe-halloween. Basic reminders—wear masks under costumes, sanitize hands frequently, and don’t eat candy until you get home.
November worship--Back to on-line
Starting November 1, we will be going back to on-line worship, only. Services will be live-streamed on YouTube at 9am on Sunday mornings and can be heard via radio at 97.5FM. With the COVID numbers rising and us feeling the need for additional restrictions to our in-person service, we have decided that online worship is a more robust and authentic way to express our praise to God in a way that is less inhibited at this time.
The council is discussing what metric we will use in the future to determine at what point we can remove much of these restrictions and barriers to worshipping in person. We will keep you informed so that you can keep watch and pray with and for us.
We are aware that other congregations are making different decisions based on their own ways and considerations of health and safety standards. We all continue to muddle through this time of chaos and difficulty. Please know that we don’t make these decisions lightly, and our staff continues to work as hard as ever to stay connected and offer meaningful ministry to our members and our community. Thank you for your understanding.

Sunday School Moving Forward
‘Zoom’-ing with Jesus! Students can join Pastor Tobi on Saturday mornings at 9am on zoom (starting October 31) for a different approach to Sunday School, worship, and faith formation. We’ll sing a couple of songs, maybe watch a video, hear the week’s Bible story, have some conversation with the message, and do some show-and-tell. This isn’t just any zoom classroom —we’re going to be zooming with Jesus through Word and song. Join by logging onto zoom and use Meeting ID: 881 5326 0740; Passcode: 112716
Our Money Story
We all have a money story, whether we recognize it or not. Perhaps we are living from a story of fear or shame or guilt. Or a story that our actions won’t have an impact. Or a story that we don’t have enough. Where might God be speaking a new narrative into the limited ones we have told ourselves?
Join us in our sermon series this month as we explore our money story and learn to Remember, Release, Re-imagine, and Restore God's purpose for us and our 'stuff.' Click here to explore further.

Free Community Meal
These aren't easy times for anyone. If you or someone you know could use a healthy meal on Sunday evenings, reserve a meal (below). We may be able to help deliver a meal if absolutely necessary. Donations are accepted. (We'll rotate the menu and continue meal service through November and December.)

Midweek Meditation Beginning November 11, we’ll have the Sanctuary open on Wednesday evenings from 4-8pm for prayer and guided meditation. Sessions begin every half hour and will include a video, scripture/poem, some time to journal or sketch or pray, and will close with another short inspirational video. All attendees are required to wear a mask at all times and spray down where you sat before you leave. You’re welcome to bring your own paper/journal/sketch pad and writing utensils. Some will also be available. (Meditations will also be posted under the Worship tab for those who prefer to participate online.)
