Pastor Julie loves God and endeavors to share the love of God with all people. She is passionate about the Word of God and sharing that Word in worship, in teaching and building relationships with all who want to know about the deep, unconditional love of God that is especially seen in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. She believes in relational evangelism; showing the love of God through all her relationships and encouraging people to become disciples of Jesus Christ. And why do we do that? For the transformation of the world, of course! Love God, love people. Change the world in the name of Christ!
