Worship is at the heart of everything we do and are at St. Barnabas. Each week we gather to re-tell the story of Jesus’ life, message and witness. We celebrate the resurrection which has freed us to be the light-giving people that Jesus called us to be. As we worship together, there are several ways to be a part of helping our congregation.
