We Worship
Love God: We put God in His rightful place as Lord of our lives by coming together to sing His praise, study His word, give tithes and offerings, and share communion.
Love People: By worshiping together, we put ourselves in our correct place, not above anyone else.
We Pray

We Testify

Love People: We seek to exemplify Jesus to those around us, and work to encourage and equip them to the best of our ability, no matter our own qualifications.
