We’re Almost There! $53,000!
Help Us Reach Our SIGNS OF LIFE Goal

Our Signs of Life appeal is so close to reaching the finish line! Thanks to the generosity of so many, we’re nearly there—but we still need your help!
Signs of Life appeal supports our ongoing ministries that bring life, hope, and connection to our community, and helps fund our new LED sign, a visible way to share welcome, encouragement, and faith with everyone who passes by.

Every gift makes a difference. If you haven’t had a chance to give yet—or feel moved to give again—now is the perfect time.
