An amazingly humble church, the people & pastors are real, honest, not self righteous. They don't pretend that everyone should be perfect or fit into one kind of mold.

The church, instead of being focused on its own glory, is focused on glorifying God & lifting up others through love & selfless service. It provides wonderful ways to serve the community. It is always reaching out.

This place is a refreshing, biblically based- church with imperfect people trying to minister to others. I have felt welcomed there in church services, art classes, Women's ministry events and more.
