Our message will be through singing and worshiping together, to music that is special to, or requested by members in our church family. Everyone is invited to call out suggestions from the blue hymnal, and either sing along or listen and reflect. You may hear a new-to-you song or a familiar and cherished hymn from years past.

Come check us out on Fridays and Saturdays between 10AM and 3PM. We will also be open on Sunday, October 4th after church services for your shopping convenience.
We continue to appreciate receiving donations of clean, gently used clothing, household and holiday decor items.
Gifts to Neighbors in Need (NIN) support the United Church of Christ’s ministries of justice and compassion throughout the United States. One-third of NIN funds support the Council for American Indian Ministry (CAIM). The other two-thirds of the offering support a variety of justice initiatives, advocacy efforts, direct service projects, and grants. Neighbors in Need grants are annually awarded to UCC churches and organizations doing justice work in their communities.
We will collect the special offering on October 4. Please note NIN on your check or envelope.

We are planning a book study in Spring of 2027 - “IS YOUR GOD: BIG ENOUGH, CLOSE ENOUGH, YOU ENOUGH: JESUS and the Three Faces of God.”
Written by Rev. Paul R. Smith, retired pastor at Broadway Church, Kansas City, MO
Rev. Chuck Wright and Rev. Nora Smith are presenting two taster sessions to introduce you to the study which will happen during LENT in Spring 2027
Sunday, October 18th - after church from 11:15 -12 noon
Session One: What is your present understanding of God and how have you come to that understanding. Bring your own journal or small notepads will be provided. Save your responses. It could be interesting to see what you write now and then after we spend some time studying together.
Sunday, November 1st - after church from 11:15-12 noon
Session Two: We will explore Rev. Paul Smith’s insights into understanding the Trinity in a new way—through Jesus’s ministry and teachings considering emerging views of consciousness and spirituality.
This is a journey that asks us to approach Christian scripture and doctrine with an open mind. New concepts will be introduced that might challenge us to look at the Trinity and our spiritual understandings in new and differing ways.
This is a series of contemplative sessions where we will explore and process healing in a variety of ways, biblical concepts as well as your personal experiences of it. Sharing is strictly up to your personal comfort level. There are no expectations. All are welcome.
Necessary materials will be provided. Register now until 11/15
To register, please email Heather at yellowofparma@gmail.com
We are in need of volunteers to coordinate the annual bell ringing project. Please contact Linda Arndt at (970) 663-7925 for more information.
Thank you all for your continued prayers for us! We are meeting regularly to work together. We have prayed together, shared about our backgrounds, and talked through information we’ve gathered that will help us begin to fill out the church profile. Currently we are working on the nuts and bolts of listening circles; we are learning a lot alongside each other! There is a lot of time, energy, and consideration going into this process and we are grateful for the congregation’s support. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
