Sunday

Gather | Worship | Learn | Grow

Each Sunday we gather for Worship at 10am in person and virtually via LIVE Stream, Facebook, or on our YouTube channel. Whether you consider yourself religious or not, we hope you will find this time of worship inspiring, complete with music, readings, reflections, and practices that help us all grow as individuals and as a community. Come as you are. You will find people dressed in shorts and people in suits and dresses. You will find Christians; you will also find Buddhists, Jews, Muslims, agnostics, and atheists gathered.

Through worship, we embody our mission in the following ways

In our worship services, persons of all races, genders, sexual orientations, ages, economic statuses, political affiliation, physical or mental capacity, or religious belief play an active role in co-creating an atmosphere of acceptance and love.

As a historic Baptist congregation, we honor the Baptist principles of freedom of conscience and religious freedom. In our worship, we embody this by providing people a variety of means through which to connect to the Divine as well as opportunities to connect with one's own spirit in new and deep ways. 

We believe that Jesus' teachings were centered on justice: for the marginalized, oppressed, rejected, and above all, the poor. Justice is consistently found in the elements of our worship to inspire our community to work for justice for all people inside and outside of the walls of the church.

We believe that gathering together with community is integral for mutual support and for our growth as individuals. During worship, we practice community by joining our voices in song and prayer, our hearts in reflection, and our whole selves in proximity with one another.

The Free Pulpit

Sunday, April 12, 2026
Preacher | Rev. Dr. Layne Smith 
Sermon | We've All Been to Emmaus 
Scripture 
| Luke 24:13-35 

We’ve all been there. A place of distance, distraction, and escape. A place we go to forget what matters most. This Sunday, Rev. Dr. Layne Smith reflects on the road to Emmaus and the surprising ways Christ meets us, even when we don’t recognize him.

Sunday, April 19, 2026
Guest Preacher | Rev. Dr. Carter Heyward
Sermon 
| Hold Onto Your Hat!
Scripture 
| Joshua 1:5-9

Sometimes faith doesn’t keep things comfortable. It calls us into courage, trust, and movement we didn’t see coming. Coming to the free pulpit, guest proclaimer Carter Heyward draws from the life and legacy of Harriet Tubman to invite us into a faith that disrupts, leads, and liberates.

Sunday, April 26, 2026 
Preacher | Rev. Dr. Layne Smith
Sermon | "Can You See and Hear?"
Scripture | 1 Samuel 3:1-13

Samuel listens, is still enough, silent enough for long enough to hear something and someone besides the sound of his own voice and his own thoughts. He doesn’t just look within himself. He is open to the other, the something or someone outside himself. An important element of the life of faith is faithful listening.
