Written by Heather Jones, Ladies’ Ministry Director “When’s the next Bible study?” “Could we have a small outreach activity to reach a few unsaved friends and neighbors?” “I just really want community. A game night would be fun!” “We should get together and just pray.” These are several of the comments that I’ve heard […]
Written by Brent Brondyke, Music Pastor You’re Invited! The folks who are involved in music ministry in our church are a dedicated group of faithful servants.

Football games that start to really matter, basketball season begins, cool weather blows in, Thanksgiving with family, Christmas music starts, and just the whole thing – except cider – I can’t stand cider, but one of my favorite parts […]
