News & Updates: Week of 2021-10-25
“I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude” (Ps. 109:30).
I pray you will be with us this weekend as we will gather as a church family to worship and fellowship around the Word of God. Join us at 10am for our morning service and at 6pm for our evening service, in which we’ll be having a hymn-sing.
There’s no better place to be on Sunday than with your church family!
Join us for Sunday School, too, every Sunday at 9am!
Children’s Church & Nursery are available during the morning service.
