❤️❤️ Miss Janet has been pouring into the children of our church longer than most of us can remember. She has some trouble seeing and sometimes needs assistance getting around. Tonight, little Lucy noticed Miss Janet a little turned around outside the sanctuary and took it upon herself to escort Miss Janet into VBS worship. What a special moment to witness! 😭 God is at work in both of these amazing ladies!

Let's be honest. We all struggle a little bit with change. Tonight we learned that when life changes GOD IS GOOD!

VBS 2019 is off to a ROARING start! Tonight, we learned that when life is unfair God is GOOD! Even if you missed tonight or haven't registered, you are welcome and invited to join us the rest of the week. VBS is FREE to all children entering kindergarten through 6th grade. 6:00 - 8:15pm through Thursday night. See you tomorrow!

It’s VBS! Of course we walked 500 miles.

VBS starts in 15 minutes! We’re here tonight thru Thursday 6-8:15p. Walk-ins welcome every night! See you soon.

For years Group has been a very Biblical, interactive VBS. It is by far the leading VBS used across denominations in the United States. Like other churches, we chose this years’ Roar curriculum for those reasons. As we worked through the daily lessons we notice some problematic issues involving cultural insensitivity. We have contacted Group about those issues and have rewritten lessons so as to insure we honor every culture and every person as an image bearer of Christ. Our desire is that all children experience Jesus while at the same time being aware of different cultures and customs. Church should be a safe place for ALL people and we will work hard to be make that a reality this week. The Gospel will be preached, the Bible will be taught, laughter and prayers will rise up and Jesus will be glorified. We will have an amazing week as we learn to love God and people more fully.

Bubbles make everything more fun! Tandy, our Director of Family Ministries, teaching on the Holy Spirit this morning during the family ministry moment.

In this new sermon series called "Fresh Air" we will be sending daily devotionals through our Congregational eMail. Click the link to join our mailing list!

Christ's Easter resurrection wasn't a one-time thing. The resurrection changed our world and today, changes the ability for our lives to be more free, more dynamic, and more authentic. On Sunday, Pastor Jen Gibbs began our new series, "Rise."

"God does resurrection in our dark. What was dead, what was lost, what was broken, is risen into something new and begins new life. So, you can never count the God of Easter, you can never count the risen Christ, out. Especially, in your dark. This is the Easter truth." ~ Rev. Jen S. Gibbs Watch the full Easter sermon here!
