Muffins with Mom

Sunday @ 9:00 AM

Don't forget - Join us this Sunday for a special morning celebrating the mother and child bond! Children and young adults under the age of 23 are invited to bring their moms to a heartwarming Mother/Child Breakfast at 9AM in the gym before Bible study classes begin.

Enjoy breakfast, fellowship, and meaningful connection across generations as we celebrate together. We look forward to seeing you there!

Elder Nominations

Last call for nominations!

Our bylaws require that the number of lay elders exceed the number of staff pastors by one. In light of the addition of our new Worship Pastor, we will need to appoint one additional lay elder to begin serving immediately.

Additionally, at the end of the year, two of our current lay elders, Mike Lawson and Wayland Holden, will rotate off as elders upon the completion of their terms.

You may view the biblical qualifications for elders and submit an elder nomination using the link below.

Graduate Sunday 2026

Let's celebrate our graduates! We want to recognize each of our high school, college, or post-grad students graduating this Spring. We will have a special moment of recognition during the 11:00AM worship service on May 3.

This recognition will act as an opportunity for our church to pray for them as they head off in different directions. Please register your graduate so we can recognize them for their hard work this year! Invite your friends and family to attend this special service for their graduate.

Delicious treats for everyone to enjoy with that special lady in their life
