Breakfast Church

What is breakfast church?


The straightforward answer is that it is church, but while eating breakfast together. We gather in community to eat, share lives, and worship God.

There will be food like breakfast tacos and muffins, music, prayer, and a message that sparks discussion. 

This special service happens once a month at our modern worship service, which begins at 9am in the Family Life Center (the metal building in back). 

In the coming months we have some very special guests …
