We believe that everyone has something unique to offer. We offer a variety of ministries and programs designed to help you grow in your faith and explore new possibilities.
Advent is about remembering that Christ has already come to save the world while recognizing that the work of redemption will not be finished until he comes again. Advent is also a realization of our daily, ongoing preparation–the work of inviting the Holy Spirit into our lives and making room for Christ to do a good work in us. We begin Advent aware of the shadows in our world, big and small,. Yet, over the weeks we slowly move toward the light of the world. Advent is about anticipated arrival. Advent acknowledges shadows and dims them with growing light. So we wait in expectation for the full, radiant, overwhelming light to one day wipe away all darkness forever. This is the hope of Advent!

Milestones Ministry provides a faith milestone as a marker along life’s journey that says, “This is something important, and God is here, too.” This faith formation practice, for both home and congregation, helps all generations recognize God’s presence in our everyday lives. It is a time of community prayer and celebration over the family that is meeting this new milestone together.
