Everyone is welcome to attend.

With the recent statistics and studies showing that loneliness is a real issue in our culture, we want our community to know that our church, and really every church, is here as a resource and a place where people can connect, make friends and find support for when life gets hard.

This year’s Back to Church Sunday campaign is designed around a “Life is Better Together” theme, encouraging current church attenders to invite friends and neighbors to overcome loneliness and find connection, support, and hope available at a local church. As well as discovering the deeper, spiritual benefits that faith can provide.

National Back to Church Sunday is a day focused on uniting the church to equip and empower their members to be inviters. Eight out of ten people say they are open to visiting church if invited—they are just waiting for an invitation.

Join us Sunday, September 21st at 11am ! Invite your friends and family. We look forward to meeting you!

Join us for a Father’s Day Worship Service with message by Reverend William Davis, followed by a BBQ on the terrace including burgers and dawgs and pot-luck sides and desserts!
