Ways We Impact

As a congregation rooted in the rich heritage of the AME Zion Church, we are committed to growing together and impacting our community for Christ.  We do this by honoring our legacy and allowing the life of Christ to guide our worship, our witness, and our work.  We grow intentionally through discipleship, prayer, small group meetings, Christian Education, and spirited worship. 
Our growth is also expressed through service and justice.  We are called to not only minister within our walls, but to also be a transformative presence as we demonstrate compassion, uplift our brothers and sisters, empower the marginalized, and bring hope to all people.
We impact the lives of our members and our community through selfless service, sharing of resources, biblical instruction, and opportunities for partnership and fellowship.  Please click the button below to view the work of the ministries and ways you can get involved.
