DINNER CHURCH

“THEY DEVOTED THEMSELVES TO THE APOSTLES’ TEACHING AND TO FELLOWSHIP, TO THE BREAKING OF BREAD AND TO PRAYER." ACTS 2:42
Our Sunday gatherings revolve around Acts 2:42, “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”

Every Sunday at 5:30pm (doors open at 5pm), we hold a special Dinner Church where we can sit, connect, and eat together, believing it strengthens our bond as a community. While dinner is served, you can chat and enjoy the time. We sing together. Take communion together as a way to remember what Jesus wanted (Luke 22:14-20 — if you consider Jesus your Lord and Savior, we invite you to join us in this practice.) We'll also spend time talking and praying for each other. If you have something you want to talk about, you can, and we'll pray for you.
