Friends and Family:
I am happy to share with you that we have committed to reopen our Sunday School beginning Sunday, September 9, at 9:30 am. Once again, We recognize that not all of you may feel comfortable with meeting at this date, and we respect the right of each family to make their return based on their best evaluation of their needs of their family.

September 27: Sunday Evening Service 6:00 pm

#3 The Presence of the Father (John 14:21-24): Only those who obey His “commandments” enter into union with Christ, which is the outworking of the Holy Spirit, which unites us permanently with the Father.
