Our pastors have a
common desire to share God's Word
with you.  Each is available for private
counseling in spiritual matters.  Our
pastors are always pleased when asked,
"Pastor, where is that taught in the Bible?"




Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble. ~ 1 PETER 3:8
