We all have different skills, gifts, abilities and passions...and we believe everyone has something to share! Serving is one of the best ways to get more out of church, and to remind us to love others like God does! By being a part of a team, you get to meet new people, learn new things, and see lives changed! Who knows...maybe that life changed could be your own!

Pre-School Rooms: For children aged 2-4, our pre-school rooms provide opportunities to lead Bible stories, teach skills, coordinate sign-in and more! This opportunity is also suitable for students!
