Since its earliest days, our church has supported missionary projects abroad and service projects locally. Our involvement in community projects that are near and dear to our hearts was challenging during COVID, but we see a light at the end of the tunnel and we hope to return to a full slate of involvement in the near future. Below is a sample of our activities.
