College Adoptions (it's time)

*Congregation: College students who have signed up and still need to be adopted will be available in the Ministry Center NOW.


If you adopted a student, step one is to send them a card or note introducing yourself. If you have other questions on how you can care for your student, contact member, Naomi Woehnker or staff, Michelle Leahy.

Casting the Nets


*Ya'll are so awesome - I think we're all set for volunteers. BUT, if you still want to sign up, you can! The biggest need now is for everyone to go ahead and buy their tickets. Share this fun night with family and friends. Dine in with us and then buy an extra ticket for a meal-to-go! (The next day when you're thinking about it, you'll be glad you did!)

Online Greeters Needed


We're looking to expand our list of online greeters who serve during our 10:30 livestream worship services on Facebook. It's a really cool way to connect and welcome people worshiping with us online. If you'd like to know more about this unique opportunity to serve the church, reach out to Art Wenzel or contact the church office. We'd be happy to get you connected to Art.


Sanctuary Care Crew


We have several incredible teams of members that rotate different jobs throughout each month to keep our Sanctuary and the surrounding area clean and ready for worship in our most sacred space. Recently, one of our teams had to step down from running the floor machine, dry mop, and dusting. If you're interested in being part of this amazing set of people who care for God's house behind the scenes, fill out the form through the button below and our coordinators Devon & Alicia Weaver will reach out to you.
