Such a welcoming community! The worship is incredible and the sermons are always relevant and thought-provoking. We found our church home here.

Great church with a strong focus on community. The children's program is excellent. Only wish parking was easier to find on Sunday mornings.

Visited as a newcomer and was immediately made to feel at home. The pastor took time to greet us personally after the service. Highly recommend.
