I am so PUMPED UP about what THE LORD is going to do in and through HIS CHURCH in 2016! In case you haven't heard heres four of the things we will be stepping up and doing in 2016. GRANITE WILL BE... Launching our GREAT LOWELL CAMPUS in February.  Launching our iCampus by EASTER.  Opening up our CHAMPIONS CLUB - Ministry to the special needs and medically fragile community.

See "I KNOW" the stories of the people who sit in the chairs, I know the struggles they face, I know the victories they've expereinced, the pain they bear and the healing they've found.  My church has a name and its not only granite UNITED church, its THE NAME of every child, every teenager, and every adult who calls GRANITE HOME.  So if you wondering why I'm so passionate about the church its really ...
