Non-Discrimination Policy
Non-Discrimination Policy
We are an affirming church. What does that mean?
The unity of believers in Christ is reflected in the rich diversity of the Church’s membership. In Christ, by the power of the Spirit, God unites persons through baptism, regardless of race, ethnicity, age, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, geography, or theological conviction. There is therefore no place in the life of the Church for discrimination against any person. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) shall guarantee full participation and representation in its worship, governance, and emerging life to all persons or groups within its membership. No member shall be denied participation or representation for any reason other than those stated in this Constitution.
(from the PCUSA Book of Order)
Emmanuel is a safe place. Glad you are here.

Green Coffee Team
Green Coffee Team
We are putting together a team of people who would be willing to wash coffee cups after Sunday Service. In an attempt to be more conscientious about waste (and to use better cups!) we are going to begin using the ceramic mugs we have at the church. This will reduce waste and the cost of buying cups when we already have great coffee mugs.
This will entail about a 30 minute investment after church, after the coffee hour. Please see Debbie Barber if you are interested.
Play Days!
Play Days!
Get together with other parents for coffee and conversation while your kids play.
