We want to assure you that this experience will not echo those. Salt 'n Light Youth Ministry is an organization Keith and Bethany have a history with and a high level of trust in. With Keith as the speaker, we can all trust the teaching will be solid. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Adam.
Our dear, wonderful, most favorite administrative assistant will be transitioning out of her role (but not out of our community!), so we are looking to hire for the position. Please see the attached file for a job description and details for applying! ![]()
