April 25-27, 2025 • Sandy Cove Retreat Center
Life is….Joyful. Hard. Amazing. Confusing. Complex! Sometimes it seems like you are surfing the rapids of a fast moving river – or maybe it feels like you have been turned upside down. Join other guys at Westminster for our annual men’s retreat. Rev. Dr. Michael Wilson will help us encounter A.W.E. (Adventure, Wonder, Enthusiasm) and start to thrive in life and leadership. You can start to chart a course through life (no matter how young or “not-young” you are!) that follows Jesus and helps you flourish. Click here to register.

4:00 pm Sunday, February 16 • Sanctuary 
Celebrate Black History Month with Elevation, an all-professional, intentionally diverse vocal ensemble performing the music of pioneering Black composers. Hailed as “one of the best listens you’re likely to experience this year or any” by Vents Magazine, Elevation will offer works by Kay, Franklin, Dilworth, Robles, Moore, and Bonds. This concert honors the Black experience and the artists who have transformed American music with their bold, joyful, and revolutionary compositions. Elevation will be joined by our Chancel Choir and other participants in the Lift Every Voice Workshop. Click here to buy tickets ($20/adult or $10/student).

The four New Testament Gospels aren’t the same story, but they offer the same Resurrection hope. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John devote most of their story detailing Jesus’ last week in Jerusalem, all highlighting Jesus’ triumphant entry into the city, the suffering and humiliation of the cross, and the empty tomb come Sunday morning. These different perspectives aren’t a reason to dismiss the Gospels; rather then reveal an abundant, diverse, and complementary picture of God’s work in the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Join us for this DVD/book study, The Final Days: A Lenten Journey through the Gospels by Matt Rawle during the season of Lent. We encourage you to read the book but not required to participate.
