Each of you has particular gifts and as you are able, we encourage you to utilize them within our church to help grow the body of Christ through faith, love and SERVICE. We hope that you will consider serving on a team or assisting in a specific activity within a team that fits your gift.
All members are eligible and encouraged to serve on the volunteer teams as they are able. Members interested in serving on one of the elected boards should contact a member of the Nominating Team or have conversation with Pastor Lee.
