SPECIAL SCHEDULE THIS SUNDAY, APRIL 30th

9:45 am- Small Groups/Sunday School

11:00 am- Special Worship Service

(only 1 service this Sunday, NO 8:30 am service, Kids worship, or Club 56)

This Sunday we will be blessed by our children leading us in worship during the 11:00 am hour to include:

  • Opening presentation by the Angelic Preschool Choir
  • Danny & The Shacks musical presented by the Grade School Choir


Your hearts will be filled when you experience our sanctuary stage filled with more than 50 smiling faces & sweet voices proclaiming the Word of God with us.

About the Danny & The Shacks:

Come along on this Biblically-inspired, Won’t-Bend-Won’t-Bow-Won’t-Burn Babylonian epic, recounting the adventures of Daniel (“Danny,” as we call him in our 21st-century version of the story) and his bandmates, The Shacks (better known to you Bible scholars out there as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego!). In our re-telling of the story, three young Hebrew men named Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in conjunction with the prophet Daniel (of lions den fame), have a band called DANNY & THE SHACKS. They embark on a roller-coaster-thrill-ride of experiences as they encounter King Neb, his golden statue, some crazy Babylonians, the fiery furnace, and of course, the infamous lions den. Through it all, the powerful truth of God’s Word and the importance of being obedient and faithful to His teaching comes through loud and clear in a storyline so fantastic and faith-affirming, it could only come from the Word of God.

This is definitely a don't miss Sunday!

See you there!

CHURCH BUSINESS CONFERENCE RESULTS

Giving God the Glory and Praise!


We had excellent attendance and participation in the business conference held on Sunday, April 23, 2023. At the meeting, the Church clerk shared the Member Changes Report that included the addition of 32 new members to our church roll within the last five months. Praise God!


The Building and Grounds Committee presented two motions, both of which were approved.



  • Motion #1- The church approved that we use $31,000 from the General Fund to paint, re-carpet and refresh the basement area (ground floor) of the church.
  • Motion #2- The church approved that up to $12,000 from the General Fund may be used for construction of a concrete pad with 2 basketball goals to serve as an activity area for the children and youth.


The Finance Committee gave a positive report on the general budget as well as a positive report on the Student Building Loan. Thank you to everyone who participated in this important part of our church organization.
