Announcements
We are in our new offices, but we are having problems getting our phone and internet moved over to new location. If you call the church it will go to voice mail and the message will be picked up and returned. It still has the old message on it until it is reconnected. Please be patient. Phone messages and email are being checked daily.
This is another step we take on our faith journey.
Worship services are at 11:30 AM
