A Message from the Pastor

What a great time it is to be the church. At a time when the world around us is constantly changing, the church continues to be relevant and is needed now more than ever.

Our congregation, known as “The Family of Faith”, gathers members from a wide geographic area, with diverse backgrounds and is intentional about our servant community of Jesus Christ. Whether feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, caring for AIDS patients, or advocating for the poor, the Family constantly seeks ways to share the love of God that fills our worship and our lives. As we celebrate all that is ours, we rejoice, give thanks and praise God.

Share the message. Share the hope. Share the faith.
