Art

Reba Place Church is home to many local painters, sculptors, knitters, photographers, writers and poets. We believe creativity is a profound way to connect with God and Spirit, so we encourage folks to share their creations through mediums like community-written devotionals and community art.

All banners, photographs, paintings, and traditional Mennonite quilts found throughout our Meetinghouse and Ministry Center were lovingly made by Reba members.

During Sunday services and special events, we provide materials for coloring and drawing — we encourage folks of all ages to use them.

The six banners hanging outside the Reba Place Church Meetinghouse represent our faith values.
