Watch Week
January 1st only falls on a Sunday every 8 years. As a staff we saw this as an opportunity to invite our community into a different way to begin the new year. We want to see our church expand and grow in ways only God can imagine. Join us as we seek His will for our community and congregation as we pray, fast, and worship during the first week of 2012.
