You're Invited

Thank you for checking us out!  These are exciting times to be a follower of Jesus Christ and we believe that the world  is as much in need of the message of the Gospel, as it has ever been.  People are yearning to experience authentic worship, explore if the Bible has anything helpful and inspiring to say, develop real friendships in healthy community, and find meaning and purpose in their life and work.  If you are searching for a place where you can fit in and be accepted for who you are, while at the same time getting a real sense that God loves you and Jesus can save you, then we invite you to come by for a visit.  Experience worship with us.  Explore our community.  Make some friends.  Does it sound too good to be true?  In the words of Jesus, "Come and see."
