Our Mission at The Sanctuary is to make God visible to Morgan County by doing His will, so that all who see God through us might become fully devoted followers of Christ.
We see ourselves bound together and energized by faith, love and commitment to Jesus Christ . Even though you may not yet share that faith, love and commitment , you are most welcome to be with us, to belong here and to experience what we are about. Then, if you are attracted and persuaded by what you see, you may want to set down roots here long-term. And if you don’t you will always be our friend
