Our Events
We love to gather together as we strive to follow Jesus in this community He has placed us in. By meeting together, we learn, encourage, challenge and help one another to walk with Jesus intentionally.
Connect
Gather for fun – food – fellowship – prizes
CONNECT is a youth program for young people in Grades 5 – 12 in Conoy Township. Each Thursday evening (1st & 3rd) features activities, prizes, refreshments and a devotional time.

Connect youth outreach was started September 7, 2004.
