Hello Church! Our Worship Service and Children’s Program are at 10 AM. The service is also live virtually and archived on Facebook and YouTube. Connect with refreshments before and after the Service together.
All are welcome: believers, questioners, and questioning believers! We affirm the worth, value, diversity, giftedness, and belonging of all. Let us be there for each other! Your presence means everything to your pastor and your community!
A few pics are below of a beautiful Christmas Eve together with family and friends and new faces! Lovely to have many voices reading scripture and telling the story of the birth of Christ with song, Communion and candle lighting. A meaningful tradition! Thanks be to God. Christ’s light and love shine out through us! See y’all Sunday where in Luke’s gospel we read of the only story told about Jesus between his birth and adulthood. Let’s be open to growing in wisdom, our ‘becoming’ as well.
Thank you for your stewardship!
Your participation and presence on Sundays mean everything to your church community! Thank you for being a part of something greater when we all come together! We need each other. We are grateful to the many hearts and hands in our community that serve regularly (worship, production, childcare, Elders, Deacons) and especially all who have helped with hospitality, preparing, and cleaning for Sunday services and Christmas Eve! It’s a win-win, a joy to give!
We gladly give, remembering we are the hands and feet of Jesus for others. With gratitude, thank you for your generous stewardship. Any regular giving is so important in budget planning, all ministries, and the future of TSCC! Please give what you can- everything adds up! Please consider a prayerful increase in giving as able. Your time and serving are important parts of stewardship. Your engagement will connect you with the TSCC community and the ginormous heart of our chosen church family. In January, giving statements will be going out. Please let us know of any address changes. Please reach out for information on including TSCC in your estate giving. We are now also able to accept stock donations. Our Treasurer, Barbara Sergent, is available to help with information. Thanks!
Please reach out to learn of ways to participate. We have a set Hospitality schedule with a rotation (below). If you can join the point people scheduled to help before or after Sunday service, it would be awesome. Jump in any Sunday:)
Please let Pastor Chris know if you would like to be a TSCC member/ministry partner. We recognize any Sunday or ANY TIME through the week. On Sundays, we traditionally ask the question, “Do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and desire to follow the way of Jesus in and through TSCC? If so, say “I do". If you say “I do” then you are an official TSCC member/partner! Praise God! We recognize that folks understand this and live this in different ways. We do not have lengthy creeds and doctrinal statements. We believe it is the love of Christ that binds us as we individually, and communally, follow Jesus in relationship together. Members/Ministry Partners are asked to attend Sunday worship regularly, pray for TSCC, invite others to worship and gatherings, engage in at least one ministry, and financially give regularly as per our means. Many of our regular gatherers are already doing this and we are grateful. We need you to be official Members, however, to help with the spiritual and governance areas. This includes having the ability to discerningly vote on issues and include your voice with many voices, as well as participate in leadership boards (Elders, Deacons, Church leadership positions and back-up positions). You have many gifts that we will help to develop, train, and support with love.
You are each dearly loved! Thanks be to God for this faith community and chosen church family. Newer faces and all faces, we‘d like to meet you where you are! Please let us know how TSCC can best meet your needs. Email Pastor Chris at info@tropicalsands.org.
