WHAT "BUILDING BRIDGES" IS ALL ABOUT

The goals we believe in

It's our mission to ensure Woods continues to serve as a magnet for individuals throughout the community who desire to discover and develop their faith. Our goal is to continue to build bridges near and far that connect God to his people.

Changing Lives

We build bridges that connect God to our community near and far, to people young and old, to the environment; and ultimately: to each other.

Participating in Stewardship means continuing to nurture these positive relationships, which are rooted in the love of Christ.

Living with Purpose

By building bridges together, we get closer to becoming who God is calling us to be.

Woods is known throughout its local community and county as a premier hub for the provision of life-span ministry.

It's your support and involvement that make this possible.

Pursuing the Future

This Stewardship campaign, we're building a bridge to the future of Woods. We are seeking to build up our firm foundation in Christ, and strengthen our congregation in worship, fellowship, and service.

Today, we were able to donate over 100 bags of groceries to SPAN! Our awesome middle schoolers collected toiletries and canned goods in Olde Severna Park during their Mission Camp last week. Thank you for showing us how to be Christ’s hands and feet in Severna Park! #Matthew25 #PCUSA

What an eventful week at Woods! Our Middle School Mission Camp is just wrapping up today after a week of connecting with one another, learning from our volunteers, Mission Partners, and ministry members. These middle schoolers have been uncovering so much about all of the ways Woods serves the community through Christ!

Days 2 and 3 of our Faith in Action Summer Camp are all wrapped up! We are so excited and blessed that this wonderful group of children were able to participate in some of the ways Woods members stay active in our church community. Thank you to the Children’s Ministry, Prayer Shawl Ministry, our Worship and Sacraments Ministry, and Property Ministry for providing this awesome experience! Yesterday, children learned about our Prayer Shawl Ministry and made their own unique friendship bracelets and God’s Eyes. The Prayer Shawl Ministry gifted children knitted angels as they learned about the importance of community, helping, and providing for others. Today, everyone learned how to use hand bells at the instruction of our very own Director of Music and Arts, David Merrill! Music is a big part of how we praise God at Woods. Children were reminded that worship can come in the form of songs, poems, and words! The past few days have been filled with learning, team-building games, hands-on crafts, snacks, and an abundance of fun! #SevernaPark #PCUSA #churchcamp
Button
Our Faith in Action Summer Camp is finally here! Today, we learned about the Woods Property Ministry. We made butterfly and caterpillar snacks, and then we embarked on a trek across campus to see if we could find any of our tiny friends! 🐛 We learned about which native plants our butterfly and caterpillar friends like the best, and even found a bird’s nest in one of our gardens! Today’s Biblical lesson comes from Genesis, where children are reminded that God created Earth; that He was proud of his creation, and invited us to be good stewards of all that He has provided for us.

In case you missed it, we have new Sanctuary Chairs! Thanks to our awesome Rehabbers, Property Staff, and a team of movers, all the chairs were successfully installed and ready for our Sunday services! What a great team. The same seats you sat in last Sunday are now seating our brothers and sisters in Christ, in different churches up and down the coast. We are so grateful that our old chairs (450 of them, to be exact) will have a new life ahead of them, again seating those in worship! Swipe to see the process of the Sanctuary Chairs being installed – from an empty sanctuary to a full one.

Happy Mother's Day from Woods Church! On this day, we celebrate all mothers and all of those who have been as mothers, and the special place they have held in our lives throughout the years.

And they're off! The first batch of our old Sanctuary chairs, which have served us well for 35 years, are en route to the Epicenter Fellowship of Churches, in Newport, NC. Rev. Daniel Newby and his son drove down from North Carolina this morning to pick them up! With the help of our awesome Rehabbers and Property Staff, the chairs were all swiftly loaded onto the truck. These chairs come with prayer shawls from the Woods Prayer Shawl Ministry, intended to wrap the recipients in love and prayers from Woods Church. We are happy that our chairs have found a new home. Our new chairs come in tomorrow!
