Visiting Summit:

Summit is a  small congregation of around 100 members, 50 of whom attend the Sunday  service.  While many members are older, there are some young families and  we have a multiracial Sunday School class of around 10 children.  People  wear what's comfortable for them. 

There is plenty of parking and  the main entrance is the one with the canopy (where you may drop people off in  bad weather or if they need assistance).
Someone will greet you at the  door.  The worship space is to the right, and the restrooms are to the  left. 

Visitors are always welcomed warmly.  You are invited  to contact us if you'd like more information before attending for a first  time.

Email the church with any questions or  comments.

Easter Reflections
At Easter
we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus from the tomb;
the truth is the resurrection is not an end
and there is much work left to be done
with Jesus leading the way and
commanding us to meet him in the Galilees of today. 
We are called back to the site of his ministry among us,
back out into the world where we are promised
that he has gone ahead of us;
back to the margins where Jesus ministered and encountering him again feeding the hungry,
driving out the demons that torment people,
preaching words of hope to the broken-hearted,
healing those in distress,
and breaking down the barrier walls that separate people.
Easter Prayer
Resurrecting God,
you conquered death
and opened the gates of life everlasting.
Yet like the women at the tomb,
we acknowledge we also fear what that means.
We want the benefit of life everlasting
without having to do the challenging
and even firghtening work of ministry in the streets
of our modern day Galilees where you already are
and to where you are commanding us to meet you. 
In the power of the Holy Spirit, raise us with Christ
that we too may proclaim healing and peace to the nations. As we allow you to transform the stumbling blocks
in our live that keep us from having the courage,
and wisdom, and strength to follow in your ways
into stepping stones that lead us in your ways,
grant us new life, new hope, renewed faith, renewed energy for a life of witness to the living Christ. 
Amen!
