Welcome to our Web Site

We welcome you to our church website. We invite you to consider our church for your spiritual growth, worship experience and fellowship opportunity. Our church has passed through a difficult time ans is well on the way to vibrant life with a family centered emphasis as we worship the Lord of our faith.

Each week we gather at 9:30am to celebrate our life in Christ. We seek to live the Christian life as we embrace our church's commitment to community service, meaningful servant to God's call to love our neighbor.

We are blessed with a beautiful place to worship, a Community House that serves our needs and those of the community around us. We are blessed with faith people whose love for the church has centered around mission, making our buildings fit vessels for the work we are called to do.

Our long historical place in our community seeks your presence in the common task of worshiping and serving God. For a glimpse of life in our church, check the links of our website. Please consider coming to our church for worship and fellowship.

Mission and Prayer Shawl Joint Project

Dr. Barbara Rugo Focht has undertaken a medical project to the Dominican Republic. She came and spoke to a joint meeting on April 18^th to share information on her work. Part of the project involves making comfort dolls, dresses and shorts for the children. The Mission Committee and Prayer Shawl group have undertaken getting together clothes, toys, flip flops and medicines to be shipped to the Dominican Republic in time for Dr Rugo Focht's next mission trip in the spring of 2014. The committees will be making the clothing items but will be collecting matchbox cars, over the counter medications, diapers, flip flops and various other items before her trip in the spring. They also hope to collect monies that will help defray the cost of shipping these items for Dr. Rugo Focht to dispense on her next trip. There will be boxes in church to help collect these items so please help us make this a successful project by donating any of the items.
