honoring the past,
embracing the future

Join us for our thriving Sunday worship service!

It is filled with inspiring music, engaging lay participation, and
thoughtful reflections on lectionary texts.

Sunday Schedule:

8:30 a.m. – Mindfulness Meditation     9:00 a.m. – Sunday School

10:00 a.m. – Worship     11:00 a.m. – Coffee and Fellowship     

At West Denmark, in true Grundtvigian style, our worship services blend traditional liturgy with a deep sense of appreciation of the natural world and concern for social justice. As we gather in our serene sanctuary overlooking Little Butternut Lake, we find inspiration in the peacefulness of nature, which deepens our connection to God and each other. New hymns mix with old, the ancient words of worship are sung even as we explore new inspirations and new ways of hearing and experiencing Christ’s advent among us.

All are welcome! Whether you might be seeking a church to join or just want to check us out, you’re sure to encounter our eagerness to welcome!
