Welcome
Our church has been faithfully serving the Lord since 1861. We believe that God calls us to be a safe place of welcome and friendliness to any and all who may find that their journey of life and faith brings them to our doors.
We are a church that loves our children and want to help every family that comes our way to raise their kids in an environment of Christian values, affirming love and encouraging support.

Support Our Troops Campaign
We sent 10 boxes to our troops in Afghanistan in time for Christmas. The troops were very appreciative and sent their thanks and some photos via e-mail. This program is sponsored by the UMW, Wesley Society Guild, and the Mission Team to provide needed items to those currently serving in the Armed Forces. If you have a family member who is on active duty, please contact Sonja Limbo. Military Mission page.
Food Pantry
As of Christmas Eve, we have helped feed approximately 130 families! In collaboration with other area partners, we have a Food Pantry located in the basement which is open on Saturdays from 10-12 am. Especially needed are canned meats and fruits, as well as basic cleaning supplies and personal toiletry items. We are now able to provide milk and eggs. If you would like to donate or help distribute, contact Beverly Collins.
