Although it is hard to get a feel for a church without visiting, we hope that this site will give you a taste of who we are.
We are a church that feels like a comfortable pair of jeans. In fact, Pastor Dale Farwell often gives his talks in jeans rather than a suit. We want you to feel welcome to come as you are, and desire to make a connection with you that allows you to connect with God’s love and acceptance.
Our mission as a church is:
“Connecting with people on their journey of faith and encouraging spiritual growth as followers of Christ, through serving God and others.”

SCRIPTURE AND THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK
And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.
— 1 John 4:21
Some things are very simple. We can’t love God and refuse to love each other. This is not hard to understand. On the other hand, some of our kinfolks in the Lord are just down right hard to love because they can be so difficult. But, we need to remember who we were when Christ died for us — powerless, ungodly, sinners, enemies (Romans 5:6-11) — yet God loved us and sent Jesus to save us. So before we whine about our “hard-to-live-with” fellow Christians, we had better give thanks that God loved us when we were sinners. Then we need to thank God for his grace by being more loving with each other.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage. ”
