Each Sunday, at the end of the worship service, we have church members and ministers available to talk and pray with you.

In-Home Ministry

Our In-Home Ministry is committed to making sure our housebound members are connected to our church family.

We have a team of volunteers who are divided into small groups and coordinate regular house visits, make phone calls and send cards to those members who are unable to physically participate in church. Our goal is to make sure the in-home individual knows they are not forgotten and that they are cared for. If you know of someone in need of in-home ministry, please contact us.

Prayer

We believe in the power of prayer and are committed to praying for all of our people, leaders and ministries—as well as the prayer requests we receive from all over the world. Through prayer, we've seen God work in countless, inimitable ways: We have witnessed people receive Jesus Christ as Savior, we have seen many experience healing and recovery, and we have been told of numerous restored and reconciled relationships. God answers prayer!

We encourage you to share your praises, prayer requests, and bereavement updates on our virtual Prayer Wall.
