At the end of this month, our church family bids a fond farewell to staff member Laura Greer. Laura has served on staff since 2008, first leading Children's Ministry and, these past 4+ years, working in Student Ministries. We will miss her energy, her compassion, and her sweet smile, and wish her all the best in her future endeavors! Laura, we say to you, "Well done, good and faithful servant!"

Stephen Ministers are members of our congregation who have received 50 hours of caregiving training to minister to people experiencing a crisis, facing a challenge, or simply going through a tough time. A Stephen Minister will meet with you-privately and confidentially-on a weekly basis to listen, care, encourage, support, and remind you of Christ's presence in your life. Contact Pastor Lee ( [email protected]) or Congregational Care Director Trudy Smith ( [email protected]) if you would like to meet with a Stephen Minister.
