Both services are led by Pastor Cheryl Fox. Below you will find the bulletin for the video service so that you can follow along. It can also be used for personal meditation and study at home, or wherever you happen to be.
If you can join us on Sunday mornings, we ask that if you are not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 that you wear a mask inside the church building. If you are fully vaccinated, you may choose to wear a mask or not. We do practice social distancing within our seating in the pews, but we are all singing! And communion is a part of our in-person service.
We welcome all visitors to Williams and invite you to join us. We also invite all in the area who are looking for a church home, to visit and get to know us. We want to get to know you as well!
