The entire congregation and elder board are deeply grateful for God’s provision and peace throughout this search process.

Search Update - We have narrowed down the search to two candidates, we are interviewing them this week. Please continue to pray for this process.
Our finances are continuing to stay in the black. Our FY ending 8/2024 will end in a surplus.
Earlier this summer we had a staff and treasurer transition.
Lydia Boreman resigned at Stewardship Director. Cameisha Williams was hired as a part-time bookkeeper. The treasurer role was transitioned to Ted Lewis. Lydia was able to train each enabling a smooth transition. Each have agreed to stay on for a 9 month period.
