WORSHIP WITH MERGING WATERS

We live out our faith in the work of mission, reflection, and community throughout the week. 
Worship is a Spiritual Practice that provides the opportunity to find comfort, challenge,
and inspiration to support our daily lives of faith.

This takes various forms each week so attentiveness will be required.  

If you intend to participate in worship in person please note that we follow the current legal requirements to maintain phsyical distance and wear masks. All are encouraged to seek vaccination.
