you are and to answer any
questions you may have.

We celebrate the Lord’s
Supper every Sunday.
Jesus Christ gave us this
ceremony to help us
remember His death and
resurrection. All those who
have accepted Jesus Christ
as their Savior and Lord are
invited to take part during this
special time. Please partake
as the emblems are passed.
Our time of Offering is a
unique opportunity to
worship. We hope that our
giving is always done with
joy and thanksgiving for what
Jesus has already accomplished through Calvary.
If you are visiting with us,
Thank You. Please do not
feel obligated to give as your
presence today has already
granted us joy.
