We would love for you to be involved in the life of our church. We invite you to look over the weekly schedule and join us for a Bible study or encouraging class that we offer throughout the week. We are a friendly church, and you are welcome to come as you are. From our children's ministry to senior adult ministry and everything in between such as men's, women's and youth ministries, we have something for your family.
