Welcome

Call to Worship*

Worship Music* | Graves Into Gardens

WE PROCLAIM

Affirmation of Faith* | The Kindness Affirmation

We believe that small actions can have a large impact, that kindness is contagious.

We believe in being neighborly.

We believe that gratitude restores the soul,

that taking time to say thank you is always worth the effort.

We believe we are missionaries in our neighborhoods; 

that being salt and light in the world means loving and living like Christ.

We believe in the life-changing power of friendship.

We believe that beautiful days are not made by what we have, but by who we love.

We believe in cultivating the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,

goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

We thank God for this beautiful day.
