They will provide regular updates to the Church Board and congregation during this process.  Click here for a copy of the letter Pastor Charles sent to the congregation earlier this week.    MEET GOD The book of Joshua reflects a time of transition within the nation of Israel. It depicts our seasons of uncertainty, obedience, and victory, as well as the freedom we have in Christ. This series will examine how we react to life transitions and encourage us to have courage and not fear.  This week Pastor Charles will kick off this series by sharing how transition and change aren’t always easy, but through it God prepares us and calls us to fulfill a specific task.
