***The April Wednesday Night Dinner signup is now available here***

Please make your dinner reservations here as soon as possible if you plan to eat on Wednesday nights during the month of March. After signing up for the meals you will attend, we ask that, if at all possible, you pay for your meals on the Sign-Up Genius website. Simply leave the quantity as "1" and input the total cost for the month in the "cost" box. This is a secure site, much like Realm. However, if paying online is not an option for you, please submit a cash or check payment to the church office at your convenience as money will no longer be taken in the fellowship hall on Wednesday nights.

Feel free to email Noelle with any questions or concerns you may have regarding Wednesday night meal sign-ups/payments.

We will continue to collect our Easter offering for North American missions through the month of April. This year our goal is to reach $15,000. Please prayerfully consider contributing to help support those on mission across the continent.



Click here to give online and please be sure to designate your offering either to the SBC or CBF if you have a preference. All undesignated contributions will be split equally.

If you would like to support our congregation and ministerial staff by engaging in supportive prayer during Sunday morning worship, sign up for a time slot here.

Registration for VBS 2024 is now OPEN!!!! This year's theme is the best yet so you don't want your children to miss out! We are accepting children who are potty trained-those who will have completed 5th grade. If you are a volunteer there will be childcare for those not yet potty trained.

"God, give me the conviction and courage to be like the heroes of Hebrews 11. Teach me not to hold onto those things in my church that are my personal preferences and style. Show me not only how to let go, but where to let go, so that I may heed Your commands more closely."

1. Hebrews 4: 15-16 NASB “For since we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin. Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Father God, we can approach Your throne with confidence knowing that Your great love for us and Your provision for our sins assures us of Your grace and mercy. How needy we are, but Your promises give us hope, mercy and blessing. Teach us how to appropriate such blessings so that You receive all honor and glory. Help us to share this Good News with those around us. 

2.  Hebrews 7: 25 NASB “Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.” Father, we are blessed beyond measure because not only has Christ Jesus paid the debt for our sins, but He makes intercession to You Father on our behalf. It is hard for us to comprehend Jesus living to make intercession for us. We realize our prayers of intercession for others are not with the same knowledge or understanding as Jesus, but we desire to be intercessors for others.
