The Arcade UCC Reopening Committee has decided to reopen the church building for public worship services on Sunday, November 15 @ 9:30am. For those interested in worshipping in-person, we ask that you please wear your mask at all times while within the building, follow social distancing guidelines, and adhere to all signage within the building. We also ask that you please plan to be seated in the church by 9:20 so that we can make sure everyone is in the sanctuary by the time... the Facebook Livestream begins. Entry into the church building will be through the double glass doors near the parking lot. Pastor Josh recorded a video, which is attached below, so that you can see what entry into the building, the worship service, and exit from the building will look like. If you have any questions, please feel free to send us a message. More info is also available on our website - arcadeucc.com

Pastor Josh offers a few scripture readings and prayers to help calm our anxieties and open our hearts on this Election Day.

This might be the most amazing data picture you see in a lifetime! It shows the 63,779 cross-references in the Bible. The white bars along the bottom represent ...each Bible chapter, Gen. 1 - Rev. 22. The line’s color shows the reference’s distance from the other. A cross-reference is a scripture that references another scripture. Had the Bible been written by one person or at one time this would still be amazing; however, the Bible was written by 40 authors over the span of 1500 years on 3 different continents. The Bible is complex, diverse, and intricate, and yet it has one unified message: God lovingly is redeeming all who believe! See more
