Celebrating Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday marks the first day of Holy Week — the most important week on the Christian calendar. On this day we worship at 9:30 and 11:00 a.m., celebrating with palms and loud hosannas Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. We hope you will join us for the journey that begins with shouts of “Hosanna!” and leads us to the cross and on to the empty tomb.

Survey of Long-Range Plan Progress
When Fourth Church adopted the Long-Range Plan in 2024, we also committed to regularly survey the congregation to discern your sense of our ministry’s alignment with the plan. Thus we ask that all members please take a few moments to complete the 2025 Long-Range Plan Progress Pulse Survey. (If you already responded to the Online Church Family survey, please submit this one also.)

Inspired by the radical hospitality of Jesus Christ, we welcome everyone, without exception, into the life of this congregation. Come join us at the intersection of faith and life as we share God’s grace with one another and the world through worship, preaching, education, and ministries of healing, reconciliation, and justice.
