UPCOMING DATES

Foto Sisters Concert & All-Church Fellowship

We are excited to host The Foto Sisters again at Tabernacle on Sunday morning, September 26 and for an evening concert at 5 PM. Tickets for the evening concert are $5 each and the link to purchase will be live next week. Also, we want the event and

all-church fellowship to be a way to reach new people who are not a part of our church family. Any Tabernacle member who purchases a ticket can receive a free ticket for a friend who is looking for a church home. Reaching out to people who need a church family is a major component of this event. More details will be coming next week!
