Spiritual Explorers - A Membership Class

Most of us desire to actively participate in a spiritual community, which we believe is making a positive difference in our own lives and the lives of others; a community where we can give and receive love, support and guidance. In meeting these needs, membership in our church offers a rich array of new options for friendship, selfexpression and spiritual growth.

Come discover a new opportunity to become part of an organization that is committed to helping you awaken to your divine magnificence. This class is absolutely free of charge and will be presented by Rev. Penny & Donna Axton.

For those of you that are new to our church, this is a perfect opportunity to get some quality “one on one” time with our pastor. Attendance is a prerequisite for membership at NTCRS. Current members wishing to strengthen their spiritual foundation are also welcome to attend.
