Crossing The Waters
Following Jesus through the Storms, the Fish, the Doubt, and the Seas
Mondays, Oct 21 - Dec 2 (excluding November 11), 7:00pm - 8:30pm (Hospitality)
In this 6-part series, Leslie Leyland Fields, author, speaker, and seasoned Alaskan fisherwoman, takes us on a journey through the life of Christ. She leads us across the waters of time and culture out onto the Sea of Galilee, through a rugged season of commercial fishing with her family in Alaska, and through the waters of the New Testament beside the ragtag fishermen disciples. Her own story and her fresh insights will challenge our understanding of Jesus and what it means to “Come, follow me.”

Thanksgiving Sunday
October 13
It is hard to believe we have been in our "new" facility for over 8 years. As we look back at the last few years of ministry, we have so much to be thankful for. Our facility truly is a “facilitating” ministry in ways we envisioned and even beyond…
Please visit our Thanksgiving page to prayerfully consider ways that you can participate in any of our ministries or programs.
