Adult Education
We are each on a journey of faith that requires nourishment and at Palmer we find that in community, in the fellowship we have with one another and the education opportunities that lead us to a greater understanding of God. At Palmer you will find plenty of choices for both. By focusing on our relationship with God and one another we are in a constant process of transformation that lasts our...

The path of discipleship begins in infancy. With the gifts of baptism and a loving home environment, your child has already begun her journey of discipleship in Christ. At Palmer we hope to augment your preparation with worship, story, song, movement and work of the hands. No child is too young, too small, or too inexperienced to be a part of our community. From Sunday to Saturday, our doors...

Worship
There's a long-standing joke here at Palmer that runs something like: "If you like organized religion, Palmer may not be the place for you." If you are looking for a Christian community that is neat and tidy, a place that has all the answers to all our questions about life—Palmer may not fit your search.
We are committed to being a community for all God's beloved children, but we don't feel...
