“I am delighted you found our home page – and my hope is that you didn’t get here by accident.

At some point in life, we all look for something to help us make sense of life. Eternal questions such as, “Why am I here? What is life all about, anyway?” are as unanswerable as they are thought provoking.

Questions like, “Does God truly exist? If so, does God know who I am? And would God even care about me if He did?” can be just as haunting.


The difference is I believe these questions have answers. But the difficulty with these questions is that the answers are usually given glibly, as if the answers are obvious to even the most casual observer.

All I can say is that I believe God has a unique way of reaching each person. No matter where life has taken them, what their situation may be, or what anybody else thinks of them, God can and will meet them where they are in a way that is meaningful to them.

The purpose of our church, then, is

• to encourage people to allow God to reach them,
• to guide them as their connection with God grows and strengthens,
• to help them understand the way of life Jesus wants us all to live,
• to be awe-struck as their relationship with God becomes so close that God becomes their Father,
• and to celebrate with them throughout their transformation of becoming a new person.

Although God is always our focus, Jesus is the one to whom we are apprenticed. The more we become like Jesus, the closer we are drawn to God.

I invite you to contact me if you wish to discuss what you have read or to learn more about who we are.

† May God bless you and keep you . . .
Pastor Bud
