WHAT'S HAPPENING?
Help Shape Our Discipleship Plans – Take the Survey!
We want to hear from YOU! As we plan upcoming short-term Bible studies and spiritual growth opportunities, your input is incredibly valuable. What topics are you interested in? What days and times work best for your schedule? Please take a few minutes to fill out our Bible Study Interest Survey. Your feedback will help us offer meaningful studies that fit your interests and availability—and that help us grow together in faith. You can take the survey on paper here at church, or online from our website or social media.
