Unbinding Your Heart Testimony - March 18


Here's the testimony that new church member, Connie Geary shared with the congregation on Sunday morning, March 18. During these six weeks of Lent, several people in our congregation have been sharing their faith story.

"My husband and I have passed by many time admiring the outside beauty of this church and decided on day it was time to see the inside, this past June. We were overwhelmed by the beauty of this church on the inside, the members of the church whom welcomed us warmly each and every Sunday. That is the real beauty of a church; the people whom make up the congregation, and share their grace of God with others.

We were very moved by Pastor Robert and Pastor Cheryl, with the love and joy they share for the Lord and the way they share this love with everyone everyday. The warm and friendly congregation led by two passionate people not only helped my family decide this was where we belong, but motivated myself to renew my relationship with God by being baptized..

So thank you to everyone for sharing your love of Christ with us and adding to not only the beauty of this church but the community as well."
