Worship

The worship life at Salem is the heart of what we do as Christians - gathering together as one to praise our Lord through word and sacrament. The Worship Committee gathers at Salem on the third Tuesday of most months at 7:00 p.m. to oversee the planning of faith-filled worship services, traditional and contemporary. There are many opportunities for volunteers to assist with worship services.
