Some events are still scheduled; some are postponed; some 2020 gatherings have been cancelled. Please check with us and use the links we’re providing for the most up-to-date information.
We’re also relying on our abiding faith in God, turning to Him in this time of world uncertainty. And we’re reaching out to you as well with the hand of fellowship.
