Gonna Tell You a Story

Join the Fun

A campfire attracts people, provides warmth, is a place where people tell their stories and often creates a sense of instant community and camaraderie.


This week, we will do service in the round - around the campfire.* We have invited folks to share in some fun campfire tales and will break up the service like a traditional camp fire. We hope you will join in the fun!


“For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:6 - 7
