September 18th was our opportunity to serve at Our Daily Bread. The Gloria Dei team helped to serve 108 meals to some hungry, appreciative folks.

A week from Sunday, October 2nd, is our monthly gathering for community food pantries. As you are shopping or cleaning out your pantry next week, consider what you could contribute. Nonperishable items of any type or quantity are welcome.

OUR PANDEMIC PRACTICES
Sunday communion worship is held at 9:30 AM in the sanctuary. Various aspects of the service have been modified for public health reasons. Also, all our HVAC systems have been enhanced for improved air quality. Those wishing to wear masks are welcome to do so.
Worship services are also being broadcast online via Facebook on Sundays at 9:30 AM. You do NOT need to be a Facebook member to watch our services or other videos. Our Facebook page can be found by clicking here:
