Welcome the routine that a new school year brings with a Church-wide Dinner on TONIGHT, August 10th at 5 pm. Bring your favorite or your easiest dish to share and spend some time getting to know new faces in our church and catching up with the ones you already know. This will be a great night of connection, and we are excited to spend it with you!

**Our high schoolers will kick off their ministry time right after our dinner. (6:30-8:00).
