Cheney Congregational Church

Remember the saying: “We have never done it that way?” Want something new? Interested in the teachings of Jesus? We are interested in the Bible and its teachings. We are interested in the old ways and the new ways.

Sept. 29 starting at noon, we will host a “Family Fest” at our parking lot with music, games and food. We want to meet our neighbors. Come and enjoy a family day out.

Visit with us Sunday mornings for more about Jesus and the book of Luke.

Cheney Congregational Church holds church services every Sunday starting at 10 a.m. A social hour is held after the meeting. Some finger food and small talk. Come join us.

For your contemplation: “Somewhere we know that without a lonely place our lives are in danger. Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning, that without listening speaking no longer heals, without distance closeness cannot cure. Somewhere we know that without a lonely place our actions quickly become empty gestures. The careful balance between silence and words, withdrawal and involvement, distance and closeness, solitude and community forms the basis of the Christian life and should therefore be the subjects of our most personal attention. Let us therefore look somewhat closer, first at our life in action, and at our life in solitude.” Henri JM Nouwen.
