Service of Worship

“He tends His flock like a shepherd:
He gathers the lambs and carries them close to His heart;
He gently leads those that have young.”
Isaiah 40:11

We praise God for His tender care. His love for us is everlasting,
and He carries us with gentleness and kindness.
We praise God for His mercy and grace.

We are glad that you are here.
