With the arrival of the coronavirus this Spring, our lives and our life together as a church have changed dramatically. Our group meetings have been cancelled, our building is locked, and worship is now something you participate in online. We so very much miss our church family gathered as we used to gather.
As Chaffee County begins to open, you may be wondering, "When do we get to go back to church?"
The quick answer is: 1) We don't know yet, and 2) It's co...

Friends,
An update on how we plan to worship together, care for each other, and continue to minister to the growing needs in our community.
First--We have decided it's best to find alternative ways to worship together for the time being, rather than gather in the sanctuary on Sunday mornings. We will gather via Facebook Live on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. and a video of the worship time will be available here at the website by Noon on Sundays.

Toward that end we are suspending all small group chu...
