Worship Service Time Change & Common Ground Hour
Beginning January 5 our blended worship service time will move to 10:30am. To celebrate this new endeavor, we invite everyone to come early for 10:30am worship on January 5 and enjoy fellowship, treats and coffee.
Then on January 12, 10:30am worship will be preceded by our 9:30am Common Ground hour, a weekly opportunity for all ages to experience relational connection and spiritual growth through classes and small groups.

Parenting: What's MOST Important? (Feb/March with Jim Candy)
Is there anything more challenging than parenting? And, like many things, everyone has a different opinion or methodology for what makes "good" parenting. How do we raise kids in a place like Boulder, Colorado in the hope they choose to follow Jesus someday? Jim Candy has worked with hundreds of parents over nearly 30 years—plenty of time to make lots of mistakes. Join Jim as he shares his thoughts about what is "Most Important" in your role as parent. The concepts shared will be helpful for future parents who are expecting all the way up to parents of high schoolers.
Prayer
Praying Together (Sundays, 9:30-10am, in the Fallout)
Join the Prayer Ministry and intercede for the church, her ministries and the day's worship service. Each Sunday we hear from a ministry or about a topic. Lift up the next generation as we pray for students, families or young adults. Seek justice and mercy as we pray for outreach, service and missions. Support our leaders and congregation through seasons, decisions and formation.
