Friend...
 
We've discovered something worth sharing with you.  As we all grow older, we are made aware of how vitally important our marriage, family, and our future is.  We daily need wisdom, love and strength beyond our own capacities.  Because of this, we've found it important to set aside time each week to worship God and learn from His Word, the Bible.  We welcome you to come & share in the joy that we've found in Jesus Christ. 

- Pastor Aaron Barrett
