About our Church Our church was planted by the Kansas-Nebraska Convention of Southern Baptists on January 1, 2011. The church plant pastor served the church through 2017, and during this time, the church grew from six attendees to an average attendance of thirty-five. We called our second pastor in 2018, who remained through 2020. Our church has attendees of all ages and stages in life. We currently have an interim pastor and are experiencing a time of growth in our Sunday Worship Service. Our church has grown since its inception through fulfilling both our purpose and vision. Our church’s mission: To worship and serve God and fulfill the Great Commission of Jesus Christ as set forth in Matthew 28:19-20 and the Great Commandment as set forth in Matthew 22:37-40.
