Spanning a vibrant two-block campus in the heart of the city, the church family proudly describes its identity as biblical, traditional, growing, and well-resourced. Led by Senior Pastor Rev.

Ministry programs are uniquely housed in "The Depot," a beautifully renovated former downtown transit station fully dedicated as an excellent, youth-friendly gathering space. Key weekly programs include Middle School "Upward Bound" on Mondays and High School "High Life" on Wednesdays, both blending high-energy large groups with intentional home-based small groups, alongside a dedicated Confirmation-style Inquirer’s Class for 6th graders.
