Looking for a book to read this August?
July 31, 2025Try The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabelle Wilkerson. In this epic, beautifully written masterwork, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson chronicles one of the great untold stories of American history: the decades-long migration of black citizens who fled the South for northern and western cities in search of a better life. Our book discussion group will discuss it at 10 am Monday, September 8 in the Library.
New Check In Kiosks
July 31, 2025
In this 90 second video, Pastor Eric introduces our updated check in kiosks. We encourage you to use the kiosks and wear a name tag on Sundays to help learn names and foster community. This can also replace the friendship pads (avoiding extra work for our office) and make it safer for children going to Children’s ministries. Wanting to save time in front of the kiosk? You can precheck into worship on your phone via the Church Center app. Pastor Eric shows you that process in this 90 second video.
This is just one of several new features we’ll roll out in the next month to help you better engage with Westminster.
