Come join us at the Hope Center of LeRoy located at 42 Main Street, for a couple of hours away with the girls. Bring whatever crafty project you are working on or relax and enjoy everyone’s company. You are welcome to bring your favorite snack to share or just bring yourself. Let’s have a cup of coffee, or tea, and chat as we work, maybe even learn something new. DROP-IN, free of charge, no RSVP necessary. When: Sunday January 19th from 2pm-4pm and Sunday January 26th from 5pm-7pm.

No Regrets Men's Conference

Knowing Him is the answer to life’s greatest challenges.  Together we will explore exactly how to build your life on the solid foundation of God and His Word. There will be group worship, compelling messages from leading pastors and teachers, testimonies of how other men have done it and seminars on the topics of most interest to you. Take advantage of this day to avoid the distractions of life and renew your dependence on Christ, the solid rock on which we stand.  Cost $10
