Summer Worship

Memorial Day to Labor Day (May 30 - Sept. 5)

Welcome!

Whichever worship service you attend, the good news of Jesus Christ will be proclaimed and you will share in the blessing of being with God and with God’s people as we come together to celebrate God’s gifts, grow in faith, and serve in love!

9 a.m. Traditional Worship

Indoors, in-person and Livestreamed (available to stream anytime)

10:30 a.m. Contemporary/Informal Worship Outdoors

This worship will be child friendly and includes: A beginning sing-along featuring favorite camp songs, a Spark Story Bible time, take home activity bags, Bubbles and sidewalk chalk, lots of wiggle room on the lawn and playground, an engaging message renewing you in God’s love and grace! We will have chairs, but you are welcome to bring your own chairs and blankets! If the weather is inclement we will move indoors.

Livestream: Each week we will stream a service at 10:30 a.m.  (Sometimes we will rebroadcast the 9am service and sometimes we will livestream the indoors informal service).

For last minute location changes (outdoors or indoors) due to the weather please check for updates on Immanuel's Facebook page.

Immanuel celebrates communion on the first and third Sundays.

• All children, youth and adults are welcome to come and receive forgiveness in the bread and wine - it is The Lord’s Table - and all are welcome.
• Anyone coming to The Lord’s Table with an open hand will be served Holy Communion.
• Read more about children and communion.

In-Person: The congregation will be invited forward to receive a wafer (served by a gloved pastor) and the wine/juice in pre-poured cups.

At-Home Communion: If you're joining us online we invite you to join us and celebrate this meal virtually. God is with us wherever we are, and God unites us even when we aren’t together physically. Have bread or crackers and wine or juice ready as you participate in our livestreamed worship and connect with your sisters and brothers as we celebrate communion together even when we are apart.

Parking

• Immanuel is blessed with wonderful attendance at our worship services. Our 9 a.m Sunday morning service is especially popular. We always welcome visitors to join us in worship and encourage members to leave parking spaces available for guests by car pooling as much as possible, taking advantage of street parking, parking in the Kowalski’s parking lot, just south of the church.
• Handicap parking spaces are located near the north (main door) and west entrances, where automatic doors are located.
• Handicap access: Our worship and education spaces are all located on one floor. There are no stairs. We can easily accommodate wheelchairs in our sanctuary. Ask an usher for assistance.

While we encourage our Sunday School children to worship with their families each week, in addition to attending Sunday School, this is not always possible, so we support families who want to worship together by not holding Sunday School on the third Sunday of the month.
