Appreciating the Church Leadership Team



On Sunday, June 9, 2013, we continued our emphasis on gratitude for the year 2013 by expressing our thanks to the church's leadership team. There are seven married couples who work closely with Joy and me to implement the vision of the church in a variety of ministries. We believe that leadership comes through service and example. The men on the leadership team serve as the deacons and are elected by the church membership based on the qualities and characteristics required of deacons in the New Testament. We are thankful for the way these men and women work together to serve Jesus by serving in our local church.

Children's Day


On Sunday, June 2, our children's ministry workers did a great job of making it a special day for all of the kids at church. They made the Bible story come to life with costumes and drama. They had music, games, and treats for everyone. We appreciate the work of the team each week.

Baptisms on May 26


Two young ladies were happy to take an important step in their Christian life, giving testimony of their faith in Christ by baptism. Also it was the first time for Assistant Pastor Darwin Moreira to administer the ordinance of baptism. A great day for our church.
