Food Distribution to Our Community

During the 2020 pandemic the need of food in our community was extensive. We are blessed that God provided us a way to support those in need and over the last several years we have continued to see hundreds of families each month be blessed by the boxes we can hand out. We hope you'll join us in serving our community. Each 2nd Tuesday of the month, up to 5 pallets of food will be received from Midwest Food Bank and brought to the church. The Saturday following the receipt of food from Midwest, at the conclusion of our worship service, we will gather together, after a brown bag lunch, to pack the boxes and prepare them for handing out. Then we will plan to hand out these boxes that same afternoon. We invite you to join us on these Saturdays with your family, bring a lunch for you and your family, and help us pack and distribute the food each month. "For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me" (Matt. 25:35) We understand that many of you may not be available to pack and distribute the food, and yet you still want to help and support our food bank ministry. If that is the case, we might suggest that the opportunity to support our ministry financially, allowing us to purchase the supplies to prepare the food boxes, and even purchase fresh food to give out as well, that may not be available each time from Midwest. If you would like to support our ministry with a financial donation, you can do that through our giving app. Are you ready to help those in need within our community?Join Us Today For all Dates Listed Below 2:00pm Food Packing | 4:00pm Food Distribution

Youth Ministry Update

Real talk for Middle and High school students All middle school and high school students are invited to join Andrew Krivda for an awesome, cafe-style Youth Church experience during the 11am worship service message! Instead of just listening to the sermon (and let’s face it, are you even listening to it?), you’ll dive into the same powerful message Pastor David is sharing with the whole congregation — but in a relaxed, conversation-style setting. Andrew makes it real, relevant, and practical, helping you connect God’s truth directly to your everyday life. After the congregational prayer, all students will be dismissed and head to the Youth Classroom (located to the left of the main sanctuary) for this exciting time together. If you’re in middle or high school, this is your spot! Come ready to share, laugh, grow, and build real faith with friends who get it. We can’t wait to see you there! Want to talk to someone before we meet? We’re here. No easy answers. Just honest conversation. 📅 Saturday, May 23rd, 11:00am following prayer 📍 Youth Room (Front sanctuary, on the left) Parents – encourage your student to join us. They will meet new friends, share openly, and grow together.
