Churches

Cheney Congregational Church

Greetings from Cheney Congregational. We welcome you to join us on Sunday mornings for in-person worship at 10 a.m. Masks are required.

In July we are finishing a new sermon series, “Four Greek Words Every Christian Should Know.” Join us to see how learning the ancient Greek language can help illuminate scripture in fresh ways. At the end of July we will begin a series titled, “The Church and Mental Illness.” Kids have their own “Discovery Team Time” during our services with crafts and Bible lessons.  If you’d like to learn more or contact us, visit our website, http://www.cheneycongregational.org. 

You’re invited to join us for our “Church in the Park” events on July 18 and Aug. 29. Partnering with a couple of other churches, we are holding our Sunday morning services outside in Sutton Park at 9:30 a.m. on those Sundays. We hope you’ll join us to learn about God’s creation while physically being in it. We hope to see you there!

Emmanuel Lutheran Church

All are welcome to worship with us this Sunday, July 4, at Emmanuel Lutheran Church at 10:30 a.m.

Mark your calendars and plan to attend the second multi-church outdoor worship service at Sutton Park at 9:30 am. Cheney Congregational, Emmanuel Lutheran, and St. Paul’s Episcopal churches are taking turns leading the worship services. Questions regarding the services may be directed to: http://www.emmanuelcheney.org or pastor Matt Goodale at [email protected]. Visitors are expected.

All are welcome to visit Emmanuel’s Little Free Library and the Free Community Pantry located at 639 Elm Street. Donations of books, nonperishable food, and personal care items for all ages are always accepted. All items are “take what you need, leave what you can.” Both are open to the community 24/7. Emmanuel thanks you for your continued support of this outreach to our neighbors.

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church

A welcoming haven, nourishing all God’s people in body, mind and spirit. Sunday morning prayer at 11 a.m. Because of the pandemic, the service will be an abbreviated version but include all the necessary prayers. All safety and sanitizing measures will be strictly observed, in particular wearing masks and keeping social distancing. All are welcome.

The memorial service in honor of our deceased priest, Rev. Christine Soule, is postponed, and will be rescheduled later, to be held at St. John’s Cathedral. We will keep you informed.

United Methodist Church

Please worship with us this week at the United Methodist Church as we continue our on line and at home worship options for a while longer. Pastor Alissa Bertsch will preach the fifth sermon in a series based on the book, “Sabbath, Finding Rest, and Delight in Our Busy Lives” by Wayne Muller. Wisdom is the theme this week with the sermon based on the 23rd Psalm.

If you wish to worship on line while our doors are closed all services are available on the church website, www.cheneyumc.org. You may also contact pastor Alissa Bertsch at (509) 879-2278 if you would like be added to our mailing list for a hard copy of the worship service.
