Worshiping together is an important part of how we experience the love of God and one another.
We are God’s children, seeking to deepen our relationship with Jesus and with each other, as we share God’s love.

Angel Miller, who holds everything together, is the person you meet when you come to the church weekday mornings from 9:30 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. To say that she runs the office does not communicate the depth of her kindness, her knowledge, and her love for the church. Angel has been here since 2006. Everyone, especially the pastor, appreciates her ability to keep things running smoothly.
