It's a gathering place for the imperfect who seek to live their lives like Jesus Christ. Whoever you are, you're welcome. If you're new to the faith or a mature believer... if you're unsure, if you've been wounded by life... you're welcome. Community- as Jesus demonstrated - is a place where all are drawn in.
