Since Christian congregations come into being by the will of God, the work of operating a Christian congregation is God-pleasing. Many willing hands are required to keep the services of our congregation functioning strongly. We are looking for your time and talents even if you can only give 1 hour a month from canvasing, cleaning, making phone calls, etc! We are also looking for those that wish to serve the Church Council.
