Join us as we equip our leaders in the difference the gospel makes in our serving and leading.  We want to raise our vision and understanding of how each part in the church makes a vital contribution to the advance of the gospel in the lives of the people within our churches and beyond in our communities.  Come be refreshed, come to worship, come to fellowship and come to return to your local church equipped from the Word of God.
