Our Ministries
Our ministries are rooted in faith, service, and community. We strive to embody Christ’s love by meeting both spiritual and practical needs—whether through worship, education, outreach, or fellowship. Each ministry is designed to uplift, empower, and connect people of all ages and backgrounds, creating a space where lives are transformed and God’s purpose is lived out daily. Together, we are building a stronger church family and extending hope to the wider community.

Financial Ministry
The word stewardship often evokes the thought of finances. A great emphasis has been placed on the financial aspect of stewardship by advocating one should support the ministry of the church by returning 10% of individual increase for tithe and additional funds for offering. Recently an emphasis has been placed on "Total Stewardship" which is a concept that individuals are embracing with the understanding that time, talents, abilities, possessions, and finances are gifts entrusted to all believers by God.
Stewardship is a privilege given to us by God for nurture in love and the victory over selfishness and covetousness.
Treasurer: Desiree Doss
Men’s Ministry

Men helping one another to follow Jesus. God meant for us to be in relationship with each other. There are some things in life that we can work through with the help of another man who may have experienced the same situation. LETS LIFT AS WE CLIMB!

Health Ministry
Health ministries are an integral part of the mission of the Adventist Church. "Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God" (I Corinthians 10:31). Health ministry is the gospel of Christ illustrated, the message of God practiced. Without it, the gospel witness is muted; it is merely a theory, an idea.
The most important objective of health ministry is to help men and women reach their full potential mentally, spiritually, and physically. To reach full potential, health principles must be practiced.
Health Ministry Leader: Diane Crider
Music Ministry
"Praise the Lord. Praise God in His sanctuary; praise Him in His mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord." Psalm 150

The Ushers hold a very important place in the church. Our dedication is not only limited to standing at the door passing out literature, we are dedicated to greeting visitors, members, and everyone who comes through our doors. Maintaining order in the sacntuary as we give praise to our Heavenly Father is the most important thing an usher can do. We are more than ushers, we are doorkeepers.
