New Sermon Series........WE ARE THE CHURCH
The Church of Jesus Christ is made up of imperfect people, but we serve a perfect Savior who has a world-changing purpose for us. When we follow after Him as a redeemed family, Jesus will challenge our preconceived notions of what a church is, exceed our expectations for what this community can be, and leave us saying with a smile, We Are The Church!

DISCOVER MEMBERSHIP -- We are firm believers that life is not meant to be done alone; you were designed to be a part of a church family.....and a healthy family has common beliefs, purposes, and commitments.
