MERGE is for anyone ages 18-29 yrs old, single or married, seeking community by connecting with others their age and desiring to grow in the Lord.
Our MERGE ministry meets every other Monday evening of the month. We eat a meal together, connect through small and large group time, and grow our faith by hearing God-centered devotions taught by Forward leaders. The goal is to encourage you and help you navigate life by seeing every situation through a Biblical worldview.
Gathering together Monday, Oct. 23rd, 6:30-9pm.

Chest Of Joash
The Chest of Joash provides an opportunity to give above and beyond the normal tithe. The money from it goes directly to work needed done on our building.
In 2 Chronicles 24 we find Joash repairing the temple and a chest was set outside of it for people to bring a tithe that was used to pay the workers restoring the temple. Verse 10 says, “And all the princes and all the people rejoiced and brought their tax and dropped it into the chest until they had finished.”
A huge THANK YOU to all of you who have joyfully donated just as the Israelite officials and people did!
You can give to the Chest of Joash by clicking the button below and selecting “Chest of Joash” in the drop down menu.
