Happy Anniversary!

This week marks the 7th anniversary of West Pines Community Church! We have much to thank God for as we think through our history. I immediately think of faces who have found the Lord through the work God has done in our church. I think of our church home, and the deep friendships that wrap around us, supporting each other. The sweet fellowship and in depth study during small groups. I think of the baptisms and the baby dedications. Some of my most cherished memories are the times of communion, especially the one where we jotted down confessions on scraps of paper, and they were literally nailed to a cross. I think of the many outreach events and service projects that we have given so much together, to serve our community. What a beautiful work God is doing through our church family.

Whether you have been apart of the Body for a few weeks or several years, share with your church family how being a part of West Pines has impacted you.

Ok, I'll go first!

In the short time we have been a part of the WPCC family we, as a family, have grown, learned, and loved at a whole new level.

There is such a great feeling of acceptance, of community, and of spiritual growth here!

What a blessing it is to be a part of the body as we all strive to be more like Him each and every day!
