Ahead of that, we were treated with a sermon about the history and magnificence of bread braking by Pastor Bryce Johnson.  Following the service, Pr. Johnson taught us the basics of brick-oven bread baking. 

Pr. Johnson has spent a lifetime working with dough and baking bread; he researched that throughout in the 1800s and early 1900s, brick ovens throughout Europe were the centerpiece of village life. Once or twice a week, the community oven was fired, and villagers brought their homemade bread dough to the center of the village to bake. As they waited for the bread, they conversed with one another, played games, and debated the day's events.

The bread nourished the bodies but it was the oven that was vital to building a strong community.

Now retired, Pr. Johnson has been key to dozens of other ovens throughout the United States.  He was instrumental in the design of our oven.

Two weeks ago we performed our first live, indoor service in 12 months.  It was as exhilarating as you'd imagine; seeing 40 of your friends and neighbors!

If you'd like to attend one of the services, contact Brooklyn Castellano at the church office, who is managing the service reservations:

Of course, you can always join us via live stream.

We were all so disappointed when COVID caused us to cancel our concert with Billy McLaughlin. That's why we were so thrilled when he announced three free streaming concerts you can watch from home on YouTube or Facebook.
