First of all I want to thank everyone who has prayed for my daughter Eva (thyroid cancer) in previous requests. I am requesting an updated prayer request. My daughter has gone through 30 rounds of radiation, it helped a bit, but with this rare cancer that is usually terminal I am asking for nothing less than a miracle. This cancer goes from lung, to bones to brain and at present the doctors see a mass in the lung. I live alone with my daughter and am the only caregiver she has, it is extremely hard, Next is chemotherapy and hopefully we are not too late for that. I am praying for a miracle that our God and Father would have mercy on Eva and completely cleanse her body of this horrible, rare and debilatating cancer. I thank each and every person that prays with me. God bless you.

Get Connected

It's easy to feel like an outsider, especially in the church. We want to change that. We're striving to create a community where we all belong and no one goes through life alone. And that includes you.

JOIN A LIFE GROUP

Life Groups

Life Groups are smaller communities where people learn to eat together, pray together, and love together. Most of our Life Groups consist of 8-12 people who meet weekly or bi-weekly in fall, winter, and spring.

Joining a Life Group initially takes a risk, but we believe it’s well-worth the payoff. It’s worth it to realize that life doesn’t have to be lived on your own. It’s worth it to find a place where you can ask honest questions and learn from the experiences of others. It’s worth finding people who are in your corner when you need it most, and discovering you can be that person for others.

And it’s worth it because, not only is life better together, but our Life Groups and our church will be better with you in them!
