The focus of the meeting will be praise and prayer. This is not a political rally; this is meant to be the Church rallying to worship God and to adhere to His Word, specifically His clear view on what marriage should be. Over 50 local churches have been invited, but that is not an exclusive list. Every follower of Jesus is invited, no matter what church they might attend. Please spread the word. If you cannot attend, please pray. Stand for Marriage Initiative: Be sure to vote on November 3. If you can’t do it in person, you can obtain an absentee ballot from your town office. If you would like to help get a final word out to our community about this initiative, please see Pastor Dave.

Ride Ministry: We offer a ride ministry for church services for those with no vehicle, or for those experiencing vehicle troubles. If you or someone you know would benefit from this, please see Kevin Bowden. Troop Packages: There is a donation box on the back table with a list of items needed by our troops. We collect these items and send out packages on a quarterly basis. If you have any questions, please see Tracy or Nan Redmond. Missions: Our goals and ambitions for ministry in a foreign land seem lofty and beyond our ability. Perhaps this is the posture God wants of us; we’ll at least know for sure that whatever progress occurs follows His might and accrues to His glory. The question about future ministry still hovers over us. But this much is clear: the Bible commands us to go, the field hopes we will come, the figures show us the need, the Spirit promises us the strength, the Judgment means we must go. An eternity will record our reply.
