The Family Life Office Welcomes You!
“For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them”
(Ephesians 3:12).
We are people who desire to honor Christ in our lives. This desire not only defines who we are, it draws us together from deep within, where the stories of our ancestors in faith remind us of how we were all first loved by God. That love gives us hope, helps us to persevere, to find strength, to show mercy, and to give of our time and resources for the good of others.
​
At some point in our lives, we all encounter circumstances beyond which we can handle alone or find ourselves spiritually wanting.
​
The Family Life Ministry Office provides opportunities for people from all walks of life to encounter Christ and be encouraged and renewed by His example of love. Whether you are married, single, engaged, divorced, a parent, or someone grieving loss or struggling with the addiction of a friend or relative; support and enrichment await you here.
