Our 2015-2016 church theme is based on reflection, remembrance, and retooling as we "Build a Legacy on the Foundations of the Past". Our church 170th celebration’s theme is BUILDING A LEGACY FOR THE FUTURE ON THE FOUNDATION OF THE PAST. The scripture tied to this Matthew 7:25 (New International Version)
Over 170 years of ministry excellence and faithful service!
