“This is my commandant, that you love one another as I have loved you”
– John 15:12
We believe that we are formed in God’s love and sent to share that love with the world. God sends the church with the power of the Holy Spirit to exercise compassion and fellowship within our community and with the world at large. Volunteers are needed throughout the year to help with service projects. Please follow the links below for more details on organizations and projects that are done throughout the year.
