"We started our ministry as a way of allowing members and non-members to share their gifts in the performing arts. It also includes instruction in performing, crafts skills and a warm and welcoming community that has bloomed and florished over the years. Our goals haven't changed: we are here to share performing arts with our community, and wish to extend a hand of fellowship with anyone, both in our congregation and our area to get involved and share their gifts." - Chris Ryan
