Pastor’s Notes

Hello!

Christmas is almost here! What a great time to celebrate the birth of Jesus with family and friends.

My hope for you and your children is that you will be able to deepen your relationships with Jesus Christ and with one another through the season.

As we look to the New Year, may it be filled with Joy, Hope, Love, and Peace you watch your children grow more fully into the people God created them to be.

May the blessings of the season be yours.

In Christ,

Pastor Jeff Anderson
