Community Church

Pastor Johan Dodge will return to the pulpit on Sunday, Jan. 16, after a time of refreshment with his family. He will speak on the topic “Fruit of the Vine/ Fruit of the Spirit.” He offers the following reflection to guide church members’ prayers and devotions throughout the week: “The Holy Spirit enlivens each person with unique gifts that nurture faith and serve the common good. To identify those gifts, believers can ask questions such as: ‘When do I feel most alive?’ ‘What do I love to do?’ ‘What things, tasks or actions fill me with a sense of purpose?’ ‘What am I doing when time seems to stand still?’ These questions help discern the Spirit’s movement in a believer’s life. Created in the image of God, everyone is uniquely gifted to reveal divine likeness. When deep joy is united with meaning and purpose, vocation is birthed.”

Community Church has a new heating and air system with filtration and rapid air exchange to make in-person worship safer. The church continues to ask that people who want to attend be vaccinated and wear a mask.
