OUR TEAM
We take the gospel seriously. Ourselves? Not so much.
But we always have a blast and work hard because we love what God has called us to.
Say hey and meet the team!

ELDERS
Our elders guard and shepherd our church family and staff, and they are a group of church members—both lay and staff—affirmed by our church family to serve.
Elders are responsible to model a godly lifestyle, provide a prayer shield for the members, defend and protect the integrity of the church, pray for the sick, mediate disputes, counsel, and represent the church to the community.
