Welcome to our church website in this time of corona viral pandemic. We invite you to find a little hope and peace here for these hard times
Because of the rising Covid 19 infection rate in our area, it is with deep regret that we have closed the church building for public worship.
Funerals will still take place, and our online audio service will still be available, usually uploaded on Saturday afternoons.
