Upcoming Events
The Wise People Cometh!
Sunday, January 4, 2026
11:00 during morning worship
Sanctuary
On Epiphany Sunday, Jan 4, tradition holds that wise people came to see the baby Jesus. Next Sunday, we will celebrate their coming with children of all ages bringing their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Because of the three gifts listed in Scripture, it is assumed there were three kings who came to see the Christ Child. However, the number of people who came from the east is not clarified. With that in mind, if you feel like you would be a wise person on Sunday, let Pastor Melisa know, and she will make sure there is a crown for you!!
Holy Communion
Sunday, January 4, 2026
11:00
Sanctuary
As the new year begins, Morton Memorial will celebrate Holy Communion during the worship service. The table is Christ's, not Morton Memorial's. You are welcome to partake, and you do not need to be a member of Morton or of any church. Communion can be a transformative experience, and we invite you to be a part of this holy celebration.
Food Mission
Thursday and Saturday
January 8, 9:15 a.m.

Fellowship Center
Once again, the Morton Memorial family gets to help our neighbors with food distribution. This month will probably see many neighbors who need help during the winter season, so we need as many volunteers as possible. Come join us on Thursday and/or Saturday and find out how fun it is to be part of our neighbor's lives.
