CARING
SERVING ALL IN LOVE
Being a loving family-in-faith of all ages
means that we work, play, learn, pray, serve
and laugh together. Remarkable friendships
develop across generations, peer groups
and backgrounds as we gather to pursue
interests or embrace our calling to serve in
our community and world.
The teaching of Christ is the source of
our spiritual nourishment and the reason
we reach out to others. As part of the
Presbyterian Church (USA) we serve in
mission both in our local community and
in the world. Whether it is worshipping,
singing in choir, teaching, providing
mentors for our youth, serving young
families through our preschool, sharing
concerns on the prayer chain, providing
meals at a local shelter or helping a
world-wide mission effort, we are
responding in gratitude to God’s great
love in Christ.
SHARING
We welcome, connect with and engage
our neighbors as we share the love of
Jesus Christ. We seek to be a resource,
sharing our facility with non-profits
including a Hispanic worshipping
community Ministerios Llamada Final, and
serving as a disaster assistance site.
