Vacation Bible School (VBS) - This year our VBS for Pre-Kindergarten through Fifth Grade will be from 9am-Noon on Monday, June 23 through Friday, June 27. Our program for Middle School will be on the same dates from 5-8pm.

Friend to Friend - After a visit to a nursing home a four-year-old asked his mother why so many of the people were “broken.” He was referring to their “cracked” faces, “the wrinkles.” Unknowingly, he was describing “broken” in a deeper sense too, that they were broken in spirit. Friend To Friend is a one-to-one volunteer visitation program for residents in nursing homes and assisted living facilities that can “bind up the broken hearted.”

• A Taste of Small Groups
  Many Christians can attest that their greatest time of spiritual growth has been in a small group Bible study, where friendships are developed, relationships deepened, needs shared and prayed over, and the application of Scripture passages discussed. This class would be ideal if you have never been in such a small group, and will also provide a working model if you are interested in small group leadership. More...
