Please Join Us -
This Sunday, August 28th, Pastor John concludes his message entitled, Finders, Keepers. The story reads like a script from an Indiana Jones movie. In fact, it should be a movie. During a remodeling project a worker finds a very old book - a book that would change a King's life - a book that would change a nation - a book that could change your life as well. Come this Sunday and hear the end to an amazing story about the influence and power of a lost book.
