Epworth is going on a Mission Trip to Kumi, Uganda in 2027! Find out more in the Adult Study Room on August 2nd, 11:30am.

Tanisha Walton, coordinator of the Pacific School of Religion's (PSR) Congregational Renewal Cohort (CRC) will present the program and answer questions for anyone who would like to participate in the CRC cohort for the academic year 2026-2027.

We're hoping that every household will come to at least one work day per year. If you can't pull weeds, can you make a pot of soup or bake morning treats? Sharpen pencils? Ask Cathryn Bruno or Carla Kraus for info on how much fun you can have building community while caring for our beloved building.

To approve the compensation packet for Pastor Debbie Weatherspoon. Register to attend.

Come to Epworth and check out all the creativity happening in Room 25!

Missionaries Aeri Lee and Ben Wong will tell the amazing story of how Kumi Christian Visionary School (Uganda) began, what it looks like today, and how Epworth is getting 'Konnected'. Also, get a glimpse into the upcoming Volunteers In Mission (VIM) trip that Cathryn Bruno will embark on in July. Touch the Heavens, and Change the Earth!
