Church Directory Help Station is available in the lobby immediately following service on Sunday mornings.  The directory is open to anyone who is part of our church family, not just for members.  If you are in the directory but have not had your picture taken, we can help with that also or show you how to submit a picture you already have.  Pictures are important to help the pastors and other church family put names with faces!  If you are in the directory, we can help you set up the directory app on your phone. This is the best way to have immediate access to our directory.
