About the Sermon Series
Everyone has something to say to God…sometimes positively and sometimes negatively. But sometimes we need to stop and hear what God has to say to us! Jonah wass a minor prophet with a major lesson for everyone. Considered by some to be a children’s story, the book of Jonah packs very adult and very contemporary lessons and insights for us today.

Baptism Preparation Classes
Posted December 12, 2009
Baptism is the outward sign of belief in Jesus. It represents our union with Jesus in his death, burial and resurrection. Baptism signifies our birth into God’s family, forgiveness of sins and our new life in the Holy Spirit that comes through faith in Jesus Christ.
