NEW ON-LINE CHURCH DIRECTORY!! Remember to stop by the commons area (new Education Wing), either before or after services, any Sunday morning in March.

We are currently working on an in-house directory that can be easily updated and available on-line. A printed copy will also be made available to anyone who wishes to have one ~ we just ask for a small fee to help cover expenses. For more information, please call the church office at 527-3990.
