Ministries
OUTREACH & MISSION
We believe God is always calling us to reach out to others in love. We take this very seriously and put our time, effort, and resources into it. Along with other faith communities we regularly provide temporary housing for families in who are seeking housing and employment through the Family Promise Cheyenne ministry.
