Worship this Sunday
We've Never Done Anything "Before"
Rev. Rob Keithan
December 22, 2024 @ 10:30 AM EDT—Humans are creatures of habit, so it’s easy for us to think about all the things we’ve done before. We’ve brushed our teeth many times before. We’ve come to church many times before. And yet, every new day is the first time this day has existed. So anything we’re doing today is really happening for the first time ever! The service will reflect on how newness can be both a challenge and a comfort.
ASL interpretation is provided during worship services.
