Ladies Sip and Savor Event
Ladies, save the date for our next event! Our Sip and Savor event will be held on Saturday, May 17th. It will be a fun event built around coffee, getting to know one another, fancy finger foods and more. Look for the 13 ladies wearing pins (I believe they are in the shape of a coffee mug) and ask more about the event.

VBS Summerama
Summerama is a great way to Kick Off the Summer of 2025!
This year, we’re taking the spirit of camp – the camaraderie, the daily activities, the immersive nature – and applying it to our theme. Live It Out VBS combines the fun and adventure of camp life with meaningful Bible stories, fun worship songs, and engaging small group activities that teach kids how to love like Jesus.

Discovery Bible Study
Bryan Fojtasek will be facilitating this group which will meet in a designated section of the auditorium. Each week we will be reading one main passage together and then discussing what we learn about God, what we learn about people, and how God is calling us to live out our faith in a practical way.
We will also spend time praying for one another and for those in our community who are in need physically, spiritually, and emotionally. This group is for people of all ages and backgrounds, and it’s designed specifically so that everyone from new Bible-readers to lifelong Christians will get something out of it.
If you would like to grow in your knowledge of the Bible and be part of a supportive group that is committed to putting our faith into action, join us every Wednesday at 6:30pm!
