Congregation Information
JOIN US every Sunday morning before our Worship Service at the 10 o'clock hour for Sunday School classes for children, youth, and adults!
WE WELCOME YOU TO OUR SERVICE! We continue our sermon series, "40 Questions to a Stronger Faith." Today we focus on the exaltation of Jesus Christ. Most of our culture wishes to embrace a Jesus who was lowly and a servant to all; but this is only Jesus in part! He is also the exalted and reigning judge over all creation who will not only level justice against his enemies, but will also vindicate all who love him and his rule.
