WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT the Women’s Care Center during the fourth quarter with One percent of our offerings through our human care efforts.  Today is your last opportunity to give a special gift to the Women’s Care Center.   Please remember the counselors and staff in your prayers as they provide life-saving care for women who are expecting a child.  


THANKS TO each of you for your kind expressions of love and encouragement to our families through gifts and cards at Christmas.  We cherish the blessing that you are to us. Pastor Wolfgram and Pastor Woodside
