Sherrie is also a Licensed Professional Counselor who runs a private practice specializing in individual, couples and family therapy. Our vision is to create opportunities for believers to gather regularly to discuss the needs of our different communities, sharing one another’s burdens and together, coming up with solutions. We also desire to celebrate victories with genuine love and ultimate support. We need each other, and the world needs to see Jesus through a united body of believers. We are not the same. Nor do we worship the same. We are different by design, but we were never meant to be divided. The Father is pleased when He sees His children walking in fervent love for one another and sharing this love with those who are hurting.
