Monthly Prayer Meeting
On the 3rd Saturday of each month, we have a prayer meeting at the church office. Our next prayer meeting will be on December 21, 9-10am at the church office.

Women’s Breakfast
We look forward to a time to share our highs and lows of life as women seeking to serve our Father in all our callings. ALL women (every stage and age) are welcome and bringing a friend is highly encouraged! In addition to food, fellowship and fun, we’ll have a discussion of an article that will be sent out prior to the breakfast. Please join us on the second Saturday of every month (next breakfast 1/4) at 9-10:30am.
