"Beginning With Jesus"
Pastor Kazar Ackerman
With 2020 in the rearview mirror, how will this new year begin for you? Millions of Americans will begin the new year with resolutions, but not all will stick to them. Mark's Gospel will help us discover not necessarily what we need to begin this year with, but WHO!
Worship online with us this Sabbath @ 8:30am!
"The Beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ the, Son of God."

Myrtlewood Wing Remodel Ministry Project
Thank you, church family, for all the prayers, donations, and pledges that you have already given to this important ministry project. Our fundraising goal is $500,000. Below is an update on where we stand with funds for the project:

In addition to the Property-Building Fund, the McAnnally Capital Fund is available for us to use for building/remodel projects. The McAnnally Fund balance is $86,935. Our hope, however, is to fundraise enough money to where we don't need to use the McAnnally Fund.
We hope, after prayerful consideration, you would choose to support this important ministry project. If you'd like to make a donation, please click the link below and select "Property-Building Fund" when giving.
