Care Groups have been formed by placing 5 to 7 families who normally attend worship services into groups. They are asked to support and encourage one another through prayers, cards, phone calls and visits. They are especially encouraged to be in contact for birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions as well as during illness, hospitalization, and times of grief and loss. Other times of contact would be to express concern following long absences from worship or to convey information about upcoming events. It is hoped these care groups will show our church family and the community that we understand and uphold the teaching of John 4: 7-9 "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God. Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. Since God loved us and sent His Son to purchase our redemption, we ought also to love one another"
