 Sunday Service

With respect to the mandates and recommendations provided by our denominational leadership, state and federal governments, and the CDC, our services will be outside on the west side of the church as well as online this week. Worship, message, and kid's content will all be posted here on the website. We will be livestreaming this Sunday's service. Click the YouTube link Sunday at 10:00am.

Give Online

We would highly recommend you move your giving method to online and we would be happy to help you set this up! During this time, you can give online or by dropping your gift in the church mailbox. You are also welcome to bring your gift by the office during weekly operating hours. Find out more about online giving.

How You Can Help

As believers, we are called to turn to faith-filled service during times of panic. Let's extend our prayers and our actions towards others with special care for seniors, those suffering from immunodeficiency diseases, those who do not have any kind of health insurance, and to health workers. We lift up the whole world in prayer, including our missionaries.
