Spiritual gifts are differing abilities given by the Holy Spirit to each believer to meet the needs and purposes of God's church. They are the equipment God gives us to benefit others, reflecting His love to the people around us. We don't choose our gift or earn them. Spiritual gifts are given to us. They reveal that God is here and working to fulfill His purpose in the church. We need each other! Needs are met when the church body is thriving and using our gifts in love.
Small groups are meeting online and in-person! If your group is meeting, send us a photo or tag us on social media.

“When the storms of life come, we are most often caught by surprise—like lightning on a sunny day. This book comes out of a time like that, when my wife Lori was diagnosed with breast cancer—no family history, in perfect health, and then overnight her doctor tells us she’s not going to make it. Our five kids' ages spanned between 5 and 17. The fear was suffocating and at times overwhelming, yet day after day through His daily kindnesses, God held us up.
Lori and I trust that our story would encourage you and those you know going through a “storm.” God is with us and for us and able to use hard things for good in our lives. May this book draw you to Jesus and make you more like Him! Marc Maillefer, Author
