FEATURED UPDATES
October is Pastor Appreciation Month!
The Pastor and Staff Relations Committee encourages you to send a note or email of affirmation to our wonderful pastors - and other staff members, too - to thank each of them for all the ways, seen and unseen, they serve our congregation. It only takes a few minutes to encourage and build up those who care for us so selflessly!
“Then I will give you shepherds after My own heart, who will feed you knowledge and understanding”
-Jeremiah 3:15

Our Women’s Evening Bible Study are Wednesday nights, 6:30-8 PM (coinciding with the Midweek children’s program). We are in the book of Acts. Pastor Dawn will upload a video on the previous lesson, so you can watch if you missed it.
