Dear Friends,

It is an honor and privilege to serve the Lord with you. As we move forward in ministry together, grounded in prayer and the Bible, those who have a heart for God are not informed but transformed by the good news of Jesus Christ!

The church used to be the place to turn for healing, wholeness and hope and now the church is just one of many places to consider when searching to establish identity and find rest. We are a broken people and a broken society. We struggle with broken marriages, broken families, broken dreams and broken spirits. But in Christ we can be made whole again. Our challenge as a church is to seek and meet people’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs. This means not just declaring the good news but making it relevant to our lives. Many people may know stories from the Bible but it is my hope that we see God’s word as a living word that can bring life and transformation to our lives here and now. And as we do that we might see “church” as something to be rather than something to do. It is important that we help people both inside and outside the walls of the church to become disciples of Christ, living a life Monday through Sunday in a vital relationship with God.

It is my hope that the one true Hope found in Jesus Christ is discussed and wrestled with in honest, open and safe settings both inside the church and outside in the community.
