TABLETOP IS BACK - Mark your calendars!

Sisters! Join us in the new year to embark together on a daily reading of the Bible. We are going to read just a chapter a day starting on January 1st and then gather together on Tuesday, January 28th at 7:00pm to discuss and preview what we’ll be reading in February. We’ll be using this reading plan within the Bible app: https://www.bible.com/en/reading-plans/3409. More info to come.

Annual Business Meeting - January 19

Please plan to join us for our annual business meeting right after the service on Sunday, January 19. We will be discussing plans for 2025 including ministry, missions, facility, and finances. Lunch will be provided.
