Thankful Thursday
Have you ever experienced one of those moments when you’re going about your day and you suddenly come upon something extraordinary, but there’s no one around to see it? I have lots of those, do you?

Thankful Thursday
Being in community with the Body of Christ avails us to much more than we could ever imagine or ask for. The revelation of GOD through worship, study, fellowship … learning and growing as we come together as family.
