    I was there for a family member's funeral. Bishop Joseph Walker's staff was extremely hospitable and accommodating. Experiencing his staff caused me to want to one day meet him. They represented him well. Go visit!

  • Lawrence Washington8 years ago

    A Word Centered ministry. Great place for a solid word. If you want to do more than just show up for church, and you want to really learn what is in the bible, than this is the place for you. All are welcome, and the Pastor is a bible scholar that will take you through out the bible in a manner that is educational and still fun.
