WORSHIP & COMMUNITY
Please come join on Sunday mornings for our Bible based Worship Service. We are a small group of Christians who enjoy fellowship together led by our two ministers, Rev. Al Lumpkin and Pastor Ron Shellhamer in a traditional small country church atmosphere.
We also welcome you and your family to learn about the Bible with us during our Sunday School classes. All services are listed below.

Fellowship
We often join together after Sunday Service to share a meal. Everyone brings a covered dish and we gather at the community hall.
Community Hall
This is where our church gathers for community holiday meals, fellowship and events such as funeral luncheons. With a commercial kitchen and the ability to cater up to 100 people our hall may be rented for a fee per day. Please see our pictures.
Trading Post
The Traing Post is our community's second hand store. Accepting donations anytime. You can stop at the trading post and find just about anything you're looking for! As always everything is under five dollars. Seasonal hours are posted out front.
