We are thankful to have a church family that cares for and supports each other. We believe that the best defense against struggles is to have a close personal walk with God through prayer, meditating on His Word and regular fellowship with believers. We all struggle at different times in our lives, and we all need each other, but sometimes we need additional support for physical, emotional or spiritual needs. The leadership has recognized that many have been “people helping” on a personal basis for many years and we also feel that more can and should be done to help those going through times of difficulty.
A People Helper Ministry has been created to assist in improving our ability to support those that are in need. This ministry is not meant to replace the existing personal support ministry that people are already doing but rather to encourage it and provide additional means for help. For personal or family concerns, or concerns for someone you know that could use help, we want to inform you that there is support available in various forms.
