Agape Counseling: Our Agape counseling office is now open 2 days a week, Tuesday and Wednesday. This is a great blessing to those served by this ministry. We need your help - Please do not enter the foyer of large auditorium on those days especially when signs are up and the doors from the auditorium are closed. We must respect the privacy involved in this ministry. Additionally, sounds travels in that area of the building due to the floors and this can be a big distraction for counseling sessions. Thank you and please continue to pray for God to use this ministry for His glory.
Shut-In Ministry: We are looking for volunteers to help with a shut-in program. If anyone is interested in participating or would like more information, reach out to Kevin (931-252-0411) or Elizabeth (931-252-2099) Marengo.
