Home Fellowship Ministry

We invite you to come to one of our weekly Church services for details about Home Fellowship times and locations.

​

We are a church in which relationships extended far beyond the weekly meetings and outside the walls of our church building. Our flock is being enabled to deepen their relationships and their commitment to their Lord Jesus Christ and to each other by gathering in home fellowships.

 

"So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart". - Acts 2:46

​

"Let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching." - Hebrews 10:24

​

Children's Ministry

Pastor Dave & Jen Forester

Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven." And He laid His hands on them, (blessed them); and departed from there. – Matthew 19:13-15

​

Men's Ministry

Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. – Ephesians 6:10-12

 

Women's Ministry

Womens Leader: Rhonda Gordon | Assistant: Sara Bucelli

"...the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things—  that they admonish the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, homemakers, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be blasphemed." - Titus 2:3-5

​

Worship Ministry
Worship Leader: Brett Trammell | Assistants: Sophia Bucelli, Samuel Bucelli

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. – Hebrews 4:15-16

 

Audio/Visual Ministry

Helpers: Matthew & Angele Edwards, Bani Bucelli

Give to the LORD the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come before Him. Oh, worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness! – 1Chronicles 16:29

​

Events Ministry

Event coordinators are seasonal volunteers

Therefore, brethren, seek out from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business; "but we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word." And the saying pleased the whole multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch, whom they set before the apostles; and when they had prayed, they laid hands on them. – Act 6:3-6

​

General Maintenance Ministry

Neil Smith

Let us now prepare to build ourselves an altar, not for burnt offering nor for sacrifice, but that it may be a witness between you and us and our generations after us, that we may perform the service of the LORD before Him with our burnt offerings, with our sacrifices, and with our peace offerings; that your descendants may not say to our descendants in time to come, "You have no part in the LORD." – Joshua 22:26-27

​

Hospitality Ministry

For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward. – Mark 9:41

​

Prayer Team Ministry

Prayer Team names intentionally not listed in observance of Matthew 6:6

But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. – Matthew 6:6

Usher/Greeter Ministry

Head Usher: Robert Ortiz | Assistants:  Neil Smith

Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. – Psalm 100:2

A single day in your courts is better than a thousand anywhere else! I would rather be a gatekeeper in the house of my God than live the good life in the homes of the wicked. ​– Psalm 84:10

God is so good...

 

On our foundation who is Jesus Christ, He is fashioning a building not made with stone or brick or mortar, but with the lives of His surrendered saints who are willing to live each day of their lives for His glory.

 

Simply a beautiful truth to behold.

Our flock is so respectful, helpful and loving toward one another fulfilling the scriptures of
John 13:34-35
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. "By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."

Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

 

Servants, be submissive to your leaders with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh. For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully.

 

1Peter 2:17-19

And above all things have fervent love for one another, for love will cover a
multitude of sins.


Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace
of God.

 

1Peter 4:8-10

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 

 

By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.

 

John 13:34-35
