Salvation
Place Your Faith in Jesus
The world has a sin problem, and no one is immune to it. The Bible tells us that there is a punishment for all who sin, and that is eternal separation from God. However, in the midst of our inability to change this problem, God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to be the solution. It is only through Him, through His great sacrifice, that we are able to have a relationship with God and be saved from our own failures and from the eternity we really deserve. The invitation is to admit one’s sin and inability to do anything about it, to believe in Him and the Gospel story, and to confess Him as Lord of one’s life.

Baptism
What is Baptism?
Baptism is raising your flag for Jesus Christ! It’s telling the world that you have a new boss and a new life, and that your life is going to reflect this change in leadership. The old has gone, the new has come!
If you have trusted Jesus as your Lord and your Savior, but have not yet been baptized, then baptism is your next best step. Schedule it today by contacting us.
“And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” Acts 22:16

Start Giving
Why It's Important
Some people have a negative view of giving, or tithing, as it’s more commonly referred to in the church world.
That is not how God intended it to be at all, though. Giving is done for a number of reasons. We give out of obedience. We give because it’s a great way to honor the Lord for all that He has generously given us. We give because it is an act of worship that shows God who is in control of our lives. We give, because at the end of the day, everything is His to begin with – and we are all just stewards of His resources.
Lastly, we give because of the great opportunity. When you give, you open the door to reaching more people through the people, programs and ministries that are committed to seeing Jesus change lives. And if you ask us, that is a cause worth giving to.
“So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver.” 2 Corinthians 9:7
