This grateful heart offers us strength and encouragement, allowing us to reflect God&#8217;s love and generosity in our interactions with others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Join us on Sunday as we continue our stewardship study on the power of gratitude.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>We begin worship at 10 am.\u00a0 All are welcome either in-person or on-line.\u00a0 \u00a0The bulletin can be found on this website in the virtual bulletin tab.
