Bringing glory to God by contending for His truth, multiplying servants of Jesus Christ, and caring for one another.

Jon Marko

I was born and raised in the church but I lived under the notion that I could earn eternal life by my good works outweighing my bad deeds. I rejected the gospel on occasion because it contradicted that belief. The truth of the gospel struck me one day, however, and I became convicted that I was a helpless sinner and needed to rely on someone else, Jesus Christ, for eternal life. I have since, through God’s help, not only been led to rest in the promise of eternal life but to enjoy this life more.

COVID Guidelines

As a church, we have made every effort to abide by the recommendations and restrictions imposed by our elected leaders as they are seeking to act for the good of the community. We also feel the weight of the Scriptural directives that charge believers to gather regularly for worship and community. We believe that God has given distinct realms of authority to both the state and the church.

We have allowed for physical distancing by offering three Sunday morning worship services (8:30, 9:30, 11:00), creating more space between rows, and providing for overflow seating in other areas throughout the facility.

We realize that many are not comfortable attending in-person gatherings. We will continue to livestream our services in order to provide biblical teaching and an element of community for our entire church family.
