Welcome to Germonds Church

Brothers and sisters in Christ,

Germonds is a welcoming family of Christian believers joyously seeking, teaching, and sharing God’s Word, celebrating worship, embracing diversity, and caring for each other, our neighbors, and our world.

We usually worship on Sundays at 10:30 am (September – June) and at 9:30 am (July and August).

In an effort to take effective measures for curbing the spread of the Corona virus we have suspended “in-person gatherings.” This will include worship, choir, and all committee meetings. During this time we will work to use creative means to continue the work of the church, using virtual meetings, online tools, and good old fashioned phone calls.

Our Elders and Deacons will be reaching out to the congregation to check in, as well as see how we might serve one another at this time.

Lots of people need your prayers at this time, and perhaps this is an opportunity in the midst of our busy lives for all of us to slow down, pay attention to what’s important, and to draw close to God and to one another.

May the peace of Christ be with you all.
