Making a Lasting Impact in the Community
by Delman Coates on June 28th, 2023
Matthew 5:16 - "Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven." As Christians, we are called to be the light in a dark world. This means that we are not only supposed to be salt and light to each other but also to those who do not know Jesus yet. One way we can make a lasting impact in our community is by serving those around us. ... Read More

Don’t Forsake Community
by Ministry Support on April 30th, 2021
As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)For nearly the past year, the church has been forced to radically alter how we do business in light of this global health crisis.
