Remembering John Buchanan
Our beloved Pastor Emeritus John M. Buchanan, whose faith and faithful spirit guided Fourth Church from 1985 to 2012, died on Monday, February 3. We will gather with his family for a memorial service in the Sanctuary on Saturday, March 8 at 1:00 p.m. Condolences and memories can be sent in care of the church.
Living into Our Long-Range Plan
Adopted in 2024, the long-range plan for Fourth Church informs and shapes our ongoing ministry and plans for the future. Specifically, we are guided by our commitment to four strategic directions: (1) connections and belonging; (2) faith formation; (3) community engagement and partnerships; and (4) church sustainability.

Join Our Lenten Journey
Our Lenten journey begins on Ash Wednesday, March 5, when we will gather for worship at 12:10 p.m. (in person and livestreamed). Throughout the day we will also have “Ashes on the Way,” imposing ashes outside the Sanctuary for those in our community who are unable to be with us for worship.
