Giving: "You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving"
Join us as faithful and generous stewards in your giving tithes of 10% as the normal
Biblical standard of Christian giving. Your giving allows for more lives to be
reached with the Good News of what God has done in Jesus and is truly a reflection of
your loving heart. Even if all we have is a little, the Lord desires us to be joyfully
generous, so that He will have for His church an abundance for every good work.
Hear your call to tithe and let your love shine!

We have Assisted Listening Capability!
We recently installed Listen Everywhere Cloud Service. It is easy. Just borrow one of our listening devices with earphones or download the app on your own cellphone to use your personal earphones/earbuds (Bluetooth and Telecoil Compatible with Hearing Aids and Cochlear Implants). To get started, just tell any usher that you would like to use our Listening Capability and they will begin getting you connected - We want you to hear The Word!
