Planning a Sunday Visit
Where can I park?
Our main entrance is along S. Jackson St. There is street parking on both sides of S. Jackson St. We’re also blessed to have great neighbors at the County National Bank who allow us to use their parking lot on Sundays for worship. You are free to park in the CNB parking lot next to or behind our building for worship.
