Livestream and Recordings

(When you no longer need this page, be sure to close it. Otherwise you will hear the service playing in the window below.)
The livestream flows directly from the 9 a.m. service to the Sunday Forum; while people are leaving the church and gathering in the Fellowship Hall, you will likely hear background noise until folks settle in at approximately 10:10 a.m.
