Her role with each of them will include conducting worship, teaching Bible studies, and leading community Christian care and outreach.

In the event of a major storm in which travel is hazardous or impossible, the 8:30 a.m. service and Sunday School will be canceled, but there will be a walk-in service at 11:00 a.m. The church will inform WHTC and WJQ as early in the morning as possible of such a change in our schedule. We will also provide that information at this site.
