Upcoming Events - December, 2023

Join us for our traditional Ash Wednesday service which includes imposition of ashes.

In response to situations of war, great suffering, and conflict in our world, the Session of Westminster has approved a worship service to pray for peace. As we worship and adore our Prince of Peace, it is fitting for us to seek the abiding presence and transforming power of the liberating Lord. Please invite your neighbors, coworkers, and friends to join you in this special Service of Prayers for Peace.

11:30 am - 1 pm Thursday, December 21

We are inviting any college students home on their holiday break to gather together after a long semester and catch up on life over lunch! We will provide lunch for a time to hang out at Westminster and see everyone before Christmas. Click here to register so we can order enough food for everyone! Questions? Contact Chris Clark.

Join our 11 am worship band and special featured guests Found Wandering for a fun evening of Christmas music. Found Wandering is a trio consisting of Sarah Comstock (Vocals, Mandolin), Colin Comstock (Guitar, Banjo) and Jake L'Armand (Violin, Guitar). This year they will be joined by a 9-piece band featuring horns, strings, and keys and will be playing a mix of re-arranged traditional Christmas hymns and new takes on contemporary Christmas songs. They have long considered Westminster a second church home and are looking forward to coming back and spreading some Christmas cheer through music. There will be a freewill offering at the event. Click to reserve your free tickets. 

Looking for something fun to do, want to talk to people you haven't seen lately, or meet new people? Pack a lunch, meet at church and spend quality time with your Westminster family. We're starting this monthly luncheon (the second Monday of each month) after getting feedback from various ministries that there is a need to provide an opportunity for members to socialize in person. Anyone is invited to come. Questions? Contact Carol Olver.
