Who We Are

We are a Christ-centered, community-minded church where worship, fellowship, and service come together to make a difference — both within our walls and out in the world.

​
If you're coming from beyond Lower Township, we're easily accessible from the major roads through Cape May County, including Route 9 and the Garden State Parkway.

We have (literally) a GIANT parking lot, so there is PLENTY of free parking.
​
We're also located directly across the street from the Cape May County bike path, which extends from Lower Township all the way up to Dennis Township, so feel free to enjoy God's great earth and visit us via bicycle!​
