COVID-19 Update
We have recently been made aware of a number of COVID-19 cases within our church body. We encourage anyone in the congregation who has tested positive to contact the church office, so that we can minister and serve in practical ways. We want to thank the congregation for following the Elders recommendation. It is especially important not to attend any service or church function if you are not feeling well or suspect you have been exposed.
