Leadership

"And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,
 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped,
when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love."
Ephesians 4:11-16

Cory Wise

chaos coordinator (AKA Church Admin)

Cory is wife to Mike, mother to 5 amazing kids, and servant of the most-high king!  From a very early age Cory has felt a specific and intentional calling from the Lord to devote the time, talents and treasures He has bestowed on her in service to his bride - the church!  For the last 30 years, Cory has served in a variety of ministries, giving her the opportunity to do everything from cleaning bathrooms, to rocking babies, to leading ministries, to singing and dancing.  Whatever the Lord calls her to do through her church - she is ready to say - YES (including but not limited to getting pied in the face, wearing a Chiquita Banana style fruit turban, and running laps around the building in the rain).  
She has a unique excitement for all things organizing and planning, loves to sing praise music at the top of her lungs (with the windows open) and has a passion for helping women to grow in their love of the Lord through the study of His word.
