Newsletter Deadline
January 23, 2025
February newsletter deadline is Tuesday, January 28th. Articles should be emailed to church office by that day.
Come as you are. Everyone is welcome for who they are. You don’t have to dress fancy or wear a suit or dress. We just want you to be with us where we are! So, why not giving us a try? Worship with us next week.
Worship starts at 10am on Sundays!
Our services have been described as “warmly formal”. We have liturgy and follow the Revised Common Lectionary, but we are anything but stodgy. We are “creatively traditional”. We respect our church’s traditions but are also excited to see how the Holy Spirit moves us in creative ways.
On Sunday mornings, many park in the business parking lot across Church Street, which offers access to the front steps. A smaller parking lot facing the Grove Street entrance has accessible parking spaces and spaces set aside specifically for visitors. Others do park at the newly constructed Wood County Senior Citizen’s Center
Children, like all people, are welcome in worship. The squeaks, the shrieks – all of it! We believe that God put the wiggle in children, so we hope that you will not worry. If, however, you would prefer that they be in a different space during worship, we do offer a nursery for infants – 3 year-olds.
Children age 3 through 2nd grade are invited to attend Junior Church following Moment for Education. This offers a special worship experience for children. They return to the worship service for the final hymn.
We have one main accessible entrance – our Grove Street entrance. This entrance is equipped with an automatic door and leads right to the elevator which reaches every floor.
The church building has bathroom facilities for men/women as well as gender-neutral restrooms.
We can also accommodate the hard of hearing, with hearing amplifiers and headphones. Please ask an usher for details.
We are a community of believers who worship and serve God in a changing world. Our congregation fosters relationships with Bowling Green University faculty, students and staff. We welcome and affirm persons of every race, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, nationality, ethnicity, family status, economic status, and physical, mental, or emotional ability into full participation in our faith community.
