November 23, 2025 - Thanksgiving Sharing Service

Each year on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, our congregation has a testimony Sunday. We share of the wonderful things that God has been doing in our lives. Due to the sensitive nature of some personal testimonies, we do not stream and broadcast these services on the internet.

Categories with accompanying scriptures were used to guide our time.
