Our story has sand and mortar,

paint and sweat, sure, but it is mostly about good,

courageous people who came, joined hearts and

hands and built a congregation that has endured.

   Some have moved on.
   Those who stayed have known insult and joy,

privation and elation, discouragement and accom-

plishment -- all evidence of a life in the Spirit. They 

found the strength in God and each other to celebrate

life here for over 85 years.
