Journey Out
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength, and you shall love your neighbor as yourself." Mark 12:30
Loving our neighbor takes us on the Journey Out as we reach out with the love and ministry of Christ. All are invited to join our ongoing outreach projects, special offerings, and occasianal service projects.
