2018 StayTreat
Every August, we come together for a weekend to provide a time and a place where we can grow together in fun and fellowship as a church family outside of Sundays. We’re glad that you could join us for this 2018 time together!
At this point, our official registration is closed, but you can definitely still join us! Please just send us a note
and let us know how many adults and children are coming so we can plan accordingly! Thank you!
“COUNTDOWN”
