.....Originated in 2008. In September of that year Bob Hoogendoorn was selected to be our pastor/leader/shepherd. The church has thrived spiritually and financially since it's inception. Our outreach is both to the needs of the island people and to people far away who suffer at the hands of evil and poverty or disasters. About 50% of the offerings that we take in go to these types of missions. We are a Bible-based group of believers, accepting the Bible as the unfailing (infallible) word of God, God's instruction book for us as we journey through this brief life on earth in preparation for life after death.
We worship at the Peaine Township Hall (Kings Highway) every Sunday at 9:30 a.m. Sunday School for children is at the same time. We have an informal time together of songs, praise and looking at a portion of the Bible for instruction and encouragement.
