Are you truly the church, or just attending? The difference is profound. It's not about where you park your car, but about embodying the faith daily. Your actions outside the doors speak louder than any song sung inside. #BeTheChurch

Youth at Boston Avenue help lead worship by serving as acolytes.
Did you know that the word acolyte comes from the Greek word akolouthos, meaning follower, helper, or assistant? Our acolytes carry the cross, light the altar candle, and more. 🕯️✝️
