There is an urgency to prepare our hearts and to get rid of things that so easily entangle us, hindering us from fulfilling the destiny of our lives.  As a church we are developing a plan that will work on many levels to create a place of healing and nurturing.  As we move away from compromise and toleration and form Godly accountability, the Lord will heal our hearts.  We will be ruthless in our approach toward the sins that captivate so many in our midst and community.

Pursuit of Holiness is beginning now.  If you want to be part of this 6 month covenant and become more victorious over temptation in your life then ever before, contact us.
