Welcome

to our

Church

        We are thankful that God has blessed us with a wonderful church family, and we've discovered something worth sharing with you.

        Like you, we daily need wisdom and love beyond our own capacities. Because of this we've found it important to set aside a few hours each week to worship God and learn from His Word. In our Sunday School and Worship Services both young and old learn principles for successful living, not just for Sunday but for everyday.

        Another source of strength and joy is the support that other Christians give. Great encouragement comes from being with people from a variety of backgrounds and interests who love the Lord and care about each other. We are blessed to listen to the wisdom of older Christians and enjoy the exuberance of the young. What a comfort to receive encouragement and help from friends in time of need.

        Our families have found that the old saying "The family that prays together stays together" is true. As we come together to worship God and learn from His Word, we develop a common bond. Here is a place where families can come and grow together in their commitment to God and to each other. New answers to family needs are revealed as God's Word is taught.

        We've also learned that King Solomon was right when he wrote, "Train… a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22:6) With so many young people involved in unhealthy practices and relationships, we're pleased to have children and teens in our Shepherd's Flock and Youth Ministries learning the eternal truths of the Word of God. What better foundation for a happy, productive life can you offer your child or teenager? We also have a very active college age ministry that applies Scripture to the multitude of situations they face.

        All the benefits that we enjoy come to us from God's gracious hand. Our commitment to Jesus Christ is the result of God dealing so lovingly with us. When you commit your life to Christ as Savior, you come into a special relationship with God that enables you to face life's problems and bear them with His aid and the help of His people.

        We believe Christ's words: "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."(John 10:10) We believe, as the Bible teaches, that Jesus Christ secured eternal life and forgiveness for His people when He died on the cross for our sins: "For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring us to God..."(1 Peter 3:18) We also believe that by putting your trust in the risen Lord Jesus Christ, you too can share the blessings of God and His people: "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord', and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."(Romans 10:9)

We sincerely want to be your friend in the community. We welcome you to share the joy that we've found.
