Here are some things of special interest happening in and around Salem

Daily Prayer For Vision Team

Vison Team Needs your Prayers

This Easter season, we celebrate the risen Christ—the One who brings life from death, hope from despair, and purpose from uncertainty. Just as the resurrection opened a new chapter for the disciples, we believe God is inviting our church into a season of renewal and fresh vision. We are forming a Vision Team: a prayerful group committed to seeking God’s direction for the future of our congregation. The team will listen deeply—to God, to one another, and to our community—with the goal of helping us better share the love of Jesus with more people in meaningful, life-giving ways.

We will start this plan on Easter Sunday. We have created a 50-day prayer immersion to begin the discernment process to learn where God is calling us. We are asking for your most attentive prayers and for you to share what the Spirit is prompting around our shared life at Salem.

Here is a list of daily prayer topics. They will also be posted each day on Facebook as a reminder. At the end of the 50 days, we will be at Pentecost and celebrating the Holy Spirit’s urging toward our future. Just as Easter began a movement that changed the world, we trust that God will use this visioning process to lead us into bold, Spirit-filled ministry in our church and community.

Thrive Support Group

The Thrive! support group meets every Tuesday at 6:00 pm at Salem. You are welcome to a community that is here to listen and lift you up. Connect with other families impacted by addiction. All this within a faith context that speaks to the depths of despair and promises of hope. Pre-registration is not required.

Aging Well Series At Salem

Let’s face it- we all are growing older and our loved ones are, too. Aging is a topic that we all should be able to relate to and may have questions about.

The community is invited to Salem for a series of discussions and learning events with area experts to help us age the best we can and find resources when we need help for ourselves or those we care for.

These sessions are free and open to anyone interested in any of the topics that can be viewed in the flyer here. No registration required. The sessions will last about 90 minutes and refreshments will be served.

Monday, April 14th will feature a panel of experts of many disciplines. Click here to see a graphic showing all the panelists.

A sixth workshop has been been added for May 5th about legal and financial planning from area experts. If you click here you can see a graphic showing the workshop presenters.
