FEATURED EVENTS
In July, we gathered around a table, broke bread and heard what’s been going on in our lives the past 18 months. We exchanged stories, shared laughs, and lifted each other up in prayer. That time was sacred. And we want to do it again.
Join us on October 1 at 6 pm in The PLEX for some dinner, conversation, and a light devotional delivered by Lane Moore, the wife of our new Lead Pastor, Brett. The table is open for women in every stage of life. Cost is $10 per person.
Childcare available; pre-registration required.
Meet some new guys, catch up with old friends, eat some great food. Whether you’ve been coming for years or you are new, we invite guys ages 12 and up to join us! STUDENTS come hang out! We will hear from our new pastor, Brett Moore, and have an amazing time of worship.
Praise Kids is our fall musical program that gives children and middle school students the opportunity to experience the Performing Arts. Our Christmas musical production, The Christmas Dream Team Parade, will be presented December 5 during our weekend ENCOUNTER services. Registration for participation in the production takes place August 10 – September 28 for children ages 4 (as of September 28) through grade 8.

This month, the nation is trying to pick up the pieces. And they have a long road ahead of them. Honduras is already the second-poorest country in Central America.

Celebrating the work of our Global Partners
Recently, our Global Outreach Team had an online celebration for our Global Partners (not named for security) who have been serving cross-culturally for 16 years.
