You’re invited to be a part of our family as we worship God, encourage one

another, and grow spiritually together.

When we meet together, we sing, pray, study the Bible, partake together in the communion

of the Lord's supper, and enjoy great family fellowship.

A fully staffed nursery is available. Ask an ush-er for assistance.

During AM services, we offer signing for those who are hearing impaired.
