This Sunday, we won’t be in the building. Pentecost reminds us that the Holy Spirit doesn’t stay boxed in. It moves, it sends, it leads out. So this Father’s Day we are following the Spirit outside our four walls and into the beauty of God’s Creation. Join us at Winged Deer Park at the Meredith Pavilion for worship and food after!

Our Summer sermon series has been planned with the minor prophets Philemon, Jude and Obadiah on the last two Sundays in June and the first in July. Picking up in July will be a study of the book of Micah which will carry us through the end of August. We look forward to seeing you here!

The text for the Sunday School Class is Singing Church Music: Introducing the Christian Story Through Hymn Texts by Paul Rorem. Published by Fortress Press. Times scheduled for guest speakers will be honored and only changed at the speaker’s discretion. The session to date have bee most entertaining and joyful!!

In place of our usual Green Walk in June we will experience "Forest Bathing," a Japanese practice of immersing yourself in nature to reduce stress and improve overall health and well-being. Amanda Chapman, a Certified Forest Bathing Guide, will lead the group on Wednesday, June 25, 2025 @ 10 am at Persimmon Ridge Park in Jonesborough. More details will follow. You can read more about it at Treeming.org

Our Morning Worship service is available from our church’s YouTube page. Join us there at 11 am Sunday on Sunday mornings or in-person.

Contact the church office if your group would like to apply for meeting space. Thanks for your patience and understanding of this matter. Please take care and continue to stay safe. May God Bless!!

The WAPC Green Team has recently published a new recipe book, Book of Uncommon (Vegetarian) Recipes and they are selling like hotcakes. This new book focuses on both vegan and vegetarian recipes. The rationale for this book is that eating less meat is better for the environment, our health, and the animal kingdom. You may note that there are no recipes with marshmallows or gelatin in our cookbook, maybe a first for a church cookbook of this nature. Copies of our book are on sale through the church office for $10 apiece. So give us a call or stop by for your copy.
