Like you, we
daily need wisdom and love beyond our own capacities. Because of this we've found
it important to set aside a few hours each week to worship God and learn from
His Word.
In our Sunday School and worship services both young and old
learn principles for successful living, not just for Sunday but for everyday.
Another
source of strength and joy is the support that other Christians give. That encouragement
comes from being with people from a variety of backgrounds and interests, who
care about each other. How helpful it is to listen to the wisdom of older Christians
and enjoy the exuberance of the young. What a comfort to receive encouragement
and help from friends in time of need.
Our families
have found that the old saying, "The family that prays together stays together"
is true. As we come together to worship God and learn from His Word, we develop
a common bond. Father, mother and children coming to church together are strengthened
in their commitment to family, to God and to each other. New answers to family
needs are revealed as God's Word is taught and discussed.
We've
also learned that King Solomon was right when he wrote, "Train......a child
in the way he should go; And when he is old, he will not depart from it."
With so many young people involved in drugs, immorality, the occult, and other
crises, we're pleased to have children and teenagers in our Sunday School, learning
the eternal truths of the Word of God. What better foundation for a happy, productive
life can you offer your child?
All the benefits that
we enjoy are based on our commitment to Jesus Christ and the Word of God. When
you commit your life to Christ as Savior, you come into a special relationship
with God that enables you to face life's problems and bear them with His aid and
the help of His people.
We believe Christ's words:
"I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly."
We believe, as the Bible teaches, that Jesus made eternal life and forgiveness
available to us when he died on the cross for our sins: "For Christ also
hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to
God....."
We also believe that by putting your trust in the risen
Lord Jesus Christ, you too can share the blessings of God and His people: "If
thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
We
sincerely want to be your friend in the neighborhood.
