Bibles are available in the back of the Worship Center. If you do not own a Bible, please feel free to take one home with you.

We’re glad you’re here!

We’d like to get to know you. There is a Connection Card in the seat in front of you to get you started. Please use the card to communicate your interests, praise and prayer requests, or contact information (especially if you’re new here) with our staff. Drop it in the offering basket, hand it to an usher, or bring it by the Connection Corner. Feel free to call our office staff for any reason (440.543.5643). The Connection Corner is in the Atrium (on the right as you leave); an Elder and his wife are available

there to meet you, pray with you, and/or answer your questions.

Devices to help the hearing impaired are available at the sound booth in the back of the Worship Center.

A Note From Pastor Dave... One of the things our Community Group has committed to do is to write down our core convictions. We are sitting down to write specifically what five-to-ten things we truly believe, what that means specifically for how to navigate the basic areas of life. I have found that as I have begun to re-write mine, I can look back to several men who came into my life as mentor figures and helped me identify and shape these overriding principles. When I first began being mentored by Craig Williford (who taught me a Christian walk of integrity) or Knute Larson (who taught me how to be a pastor led by core values) or Ray Wolfe or Dick Averbeck (who taught me to be an honest student of the Word and a seeker of God), I had no idea how great a privilege I had been given until just the last few years.
