Time & Talent

Each member as well as all persons considering membership are encouraged to fill in a Time and Talent Survey. This survey is utilized to match particular gifts and interests with programs and ministries within the church. It is certainly realized that all our members have different times in their lives when they are able to do more than at other times.
