We will gather for one service of holy communion on Sunday, December 25, and Sunday, January 1.
Merry Christmas!
All are invited as we gather each Sunday to receive forgiveness, sing, pray, hear God’s holy word, share the meal of Christ’s body and blood, and be strengthened for life as God’s people!
A recording of the gospel and sermon from our 8 a.m. service is posted here each week: gospel and sermon
On December 21, the longest night of the year, neighbors in Cumberland County gathered to remember those experiencing homelessness, especially those who have died while homeless.
Almost 200 handmade blankets were displayed and blessed by the community, prior to distribution. Representatives of a number of agencies were available to provide information about their services.
First Lutheran is grateful to have served as the host site for this event.
