You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by people. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Your light must shine before people in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:13-16

Bus Driver Needed: We are in need of an additional driver to serve one Sunday afternoon per month with our ministry to immigrants from Africa. We host a Swahili service from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m. each Sunday, but many who would like to attend are unable due to lack of transportation. If you are not already an approved driver, we can work to get you trained! If you would like to serve in this capacity, please contact Russ Smith in the Church Office.  

The Children’s Ministry needs volunteers for the summer to serve once a month for 3 months.
