Some doors to the church that have previously been open will now
remain locked for security purposes. These doors include the
southeast corner of the Multi-Purpose Building, the glass door
between the Education Building and the Worship Center (opening to
the stairwell to the choir room and the JOY classroom), and the door
at the top of the ramp on the north side of the campus. If you have a
physical need that makes the use of the ramp necessary, please
contact the church office so we can coordinate this with you. If you
do enter one of those doors with a key, please be sure the door is
closed securely if you use it. Thank you for your help in keeping our
church family safe, and we apologize for any inconvenience.
