INVITATION

Our Sunday School Classes invite you to drop in for a visit any Sunday.  They are the best places to get to know your fellow church members on a less formal basis as we learn and study  God's word together.  You are encouraged to visit several classes several times until you find the class that fits your needs.  Sunday School follows the 9:30 social fellowship held in the youth fellowship hall with classes beginning at 10 a.m. and concluding at 10:45 a.m.
Our goal is to serve those seeking a church home with fellowship and Christian love for all age groups.
