Welcome!

We believe in the power of a diverse people. Every person has a unique set of experiences and strengths that can contribute to the kingdom of God. We welcome all people, whether you are taking the first step toward God, have had a relationship with God for decades or are somewhere in between. Also, you are welcome if you experienced life-changing moments that were helpful or hurtful. You are welcome if you are are dressed in rags or formal clothing. Above all, we welcome the whole or broken.

  • Our Sunday Worship Service is at 11:00 a.m.
  • It is a quiet, relaxed hour of praising God, hearing God’s word and encouraging each other in our faith journeys.
  • We do offer Communion on the first Sunday of each month to everyone in attendance.
