Serving Locally
Jesus said that the world would know that we are His followers by the way we love. Taking that love to other states and other nations is critical and usually gets lots of attention. But we often overlook loving those next door, down the street, or around the corner. Our Community Impact efforts are aimed at loving those closest to us.

True North Recovery
At TrueNorth the central focus is Jesus. Why? It’s simple. You can stop drinking and drugging and still be miserable. But we believe that a genuine relationship with Christ brings true peace and joy. You don’t have to believe to attend. The only qualification is that you have an honest desire to never drink or drug again. Ever. Join us every Sunday morning 9:30am. We’ll study a parable from the Bible—a simple lesson Jesus used to make even the most difficult truths easy to understand. Enjoy free coffee and donuts while you listen to live music. You’ll also have the opportunity to share your story with others that have walked the same road.
