Believer’s Baptism Class
Sunday, November 15

Baptism is an important next step to take ... an outward sign that a change has occurred on the inside of a person. It doesn’t make you a believer but shows that you already believe. If you have reached the point in your journey where you have accepted Christ as your Savior, we hope that you will pray about being baptized. This class is required if you want to participate in the November 25th baptism.

ON CAMPUS & ONLINE | 9:00am & 10:30am
Join us on Sunday as we continue our series:
On the Same Page
Through November 22
Understanding the Bible helps us better understand our faith in Jesus and what it means for our lives. In this five-week series, we’ll look through its pages together to explore how the Bible was written, how it all fits together, and where to begin when reading it. Along the way, we’ll discover why we can trust its words and how to understand and apply them in our everyday lives.


We are looking forward to seeing you online (
