PASTOR’S NOTE

Welcome to Faith Church! You are among friends who are on the journey of life together. We are ordinary, average people who know that we are far from perfect. In fact, our imperfection unites us together in our need for transformation. We seek to be changed by Jesus, trusting that His grace is sufficient for us. So, whatever your story is, wherever you’ve come from, whatever your current circumstances, we welcome you to be a part of this community. It is my hope that you will encounter the power of God, the truth of His Word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. There are so many ways to get connected at Faith Church and we would love to assist you in the process. There are groups that serve together, study the Bible together and live life together. Please don’t hesitate to ask for help in getting plugged in! We believe that spiritual growth happens in powerful ways when we are connected to the community of the church. When my family and I helped launch Faith Church-Cedar Lake in the fall of 2007, we didn’t know what to expect. The adventure has been life-giving and the body of Christ has been a tremendous blessing to us. I believe that you will experience that same blessing. I look forward to meeting you in person someday soon! May God bless you! Pastor Dave Weemhoff
