When you visit our church, you are a guest! Part of our worship involves giving of our money to further the ministry of the church. This is the responsibility of our members and regular worshippers—not our guests.
Our desire is to help you experience a relationship with God and see how the message of Jesus really is Good News. If there is any way we can help guide you, answer questions, or pray for you in your life and faith journey, please let us know.
