All Are Welcome
You’ll meet a wide variety of people in our church, a diverse tapestry praising God and connecting with one another. We proudly are a fully inclusive congregation.
BLENDED WORSHIP
We blend the great traditional hymns of the church with the best of contemporary sacred music. Preaching connects scripture with the everyday issues we face in the 21st century.
Children
Our children worship with us, with age-appropriate materials, a children’s message, and a special time each week for children to learn and grow in their faith together.
Serving Others
Partnering with over 20 community-based organizations, we seek to put our faith into action, working alongside our neighbors in need.
Connect & Grow
We seek to foster a deep sense of community as we grow in our faith.

Bless the Lent we Actually Have: 40 Days to Reflect, Pray, and Bless our Imperfect LivesBy Kate Bowler, Professor of Church History, Duke Divinity School
Jesus will walk with us through whatever kind of Lenten day you are having. The lovely one. The garbage one. The one that barely seems like it counted at all. As we toggle through every kind of emotion—boredom, devastation, happiness, irritation—we want to say: bless this Lent.
HOLY WEEK
March 24-31
Palm Sunday – March 24 at 9:45am
Join the congregation and choir in the narthex before worship, as we begin the Procession of the Palms and follow Jesus on his triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
Maundy Thursday Soup Supper March 28 at 6:30 pm
The Worship and Fellowship Committees invite you to enjoy a Soup Supper at 6:30 pm on March 28 as part of the Maundy Thursday worship service.
Good Friday Tenebrae – March 29 at 7:00 pm
In this service of Tenebrae, each dramatized scripture reading from the Gospel of John will be accompanied by one of the chorales, or hymns, from the St. John Passion by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750). After each chorale, we will extinguish a candle as the “shadows” slowly envelop the sanctuary. The Yahara String Quartet will join Westminster’s Chancel Choir to lead this special service of worship.
Easter Sunday, March 31: Worship – 9:45am
Be with us as we celebrate the most festive day of the church year. Christ is Risen! He is risen indeed! Children will enjoy an Easter egg hunt after the service.
