Pastor Elizabeth JonesWelcome to our cyberspace connection!  We are delighted that you have found us, and pray that your heart will be touched and encouraged to visit us on a Sunday.  We are known as a ‘coming home’ church family, a community of faith that embodies the United Methodist vision of Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors.

All who seek a caring, encouraging, faithful community will find a warm welcome here. Our church family is enriched by many different religious journeys including seekers who are finding their way back through the church doors into a more traditional church family.

Our worship is spirit-led and spirit-fed, a joining of traditional and contemporary, Bible-based preaching, and a celebration of God’s gift in Jesus Christ.  We are fed by the Biblical witness to God’s steadfast love and faithfulness in history and in our lives today.

So look around our web site; feel the spirit shining through our pictures; come and join us in worshipping our awesome God and savior Jesus Christ. 

Blessings and peace be with you,
Elizabeth Jones, Pastor
