Our Mission:

-Transportation: The church will be renting vans, allowing us to carpool together for the trip.

A Word from Pastor Greg Neumayer:

I sincerely look forward to serving your group and have already

begun asking the Lord to direct our steps and opportunities into a restful and

meaningful adventure together. -Greg
