Giving of Your Time and Talent

The new Ministry Schedules begin in February. We are in need of your time and talents in many of our Sunday morning ministries.

Many hands make light work, so if the Lord has put it on your heart to serve the body, please contact Jim Fulton. 

We are especially in need of volunteers for our Sunday School, Nursery, Prayer Teams, Altar Guild, Screens, Live-Stream, and our Safety Team. 

No experience is necessary... just a heart of service.

Life Groups are beginning this month, if you registered but have not been contacted by your group facilitator, or if you would like to be involved in a small group, please contact Fr. Andrew.

Come join us in "Bob's Cafe" after the service this Sunday for a time of fun, fellowship, and delicious food.
