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!

We are in the midst of a sacred journey through the Season of Lent as we reflect on the petitions of the Lord’s Prayer. It’s about rediscovering a framework for a life of faith and service—in times like these.
Wednesdays in Lent concludes on March 25, with a soup supper at 6:00 p.m. and service at 7:00 p.m., using “Holden Evening Prayer” as the order of worship.
Members of the congregation are providing the refections on the Lord’s Prayer.
Holy Week Begins on Palm Sunday, March 29
Join us through the experiences of Holy Week. This is the most sacred time in our Christian faith, as we walk with Jesus in joy, in teaching, in agony and then, again, in joy. It’s really about learning to be like Christ—not just in the good times, but also in the midst of betrayal and pain. It’s about learning to hold on until the dawn comes.

Third Sunday in Lent
John 9 – The Healing of the Blind Man
A Sermon by Christy Wetzig, Parish Associate
Excerpt:
“This is the God who made Adam out of the dust of the ground, and here he is again, creating out of unlikely materials, transforming. Maybe Jesus is quietly claiming his divinity here, saying, ‘Here I am, still making humans out of the dirt.’”

Second Sunday in Lent
March 1, 2026
Our parish associate, Christy Wetzig, preached a sermon on John 3:1-17.
Here’s an excerpt:
“The thing about birth is that all the work is done by the person who’s doing the birthing, not the person being born.’
Fourth Sunday after the Epiphany
February 1, 2026
Our parish associate, Christy Wetzig, preached a sermon about the “Sermon on the Mount.”
Here’s an except:
“Jesus begins with grace. He calls us to full participation in the new kingdom of heaven. We’re called to a life of righteousness and pursuit of justice; we’re called to turn the other cheek and pray for our enemies and give them our cloaks; and he knows it’s way too much to ask. He knows we will mess this up. He knows it’s impossible. That’s why he opens with ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of God.’ He’s reminding us that we bring nothing to this beautiful, impossible kingdom. But, to those who open their hands, saying, ‘I have nothing to offer,’ he puts into their empty hands the key to the kingdom of God.”
