Current Message Series:

Spread the Word  Did you know that “Gospel” is translated as: “Good News?”   Can you think of any more wonderful news than that of Jesus, who was sent into the world to save it through his death and resurrection?  It’s a story that needs telling …and that’s done by you and me.  Sharing our faith is not as hard as you may think. At its basic level, sharing our faith simply means telling others what Jesus has done for us in our daily lives. Join us in January as we explore ways to effectively communicate the love of Jesus Christ in our community!

Jan 22    The Power of Story.   John  14:1-14

Jan 29    A Grander Vision.  Luke  4:42- 5:11
