In Loving memory of our founding pastor...Erik B. Eure

With heavy hearts and deep love, we share the passing of Pastor Erik B. Eure, a beloved husband, father, pastor, leader, and veteran. 

Pastor Eure poured out all that he had to leave a legacy of love, faith, and service. From his time serving our country as a Marine during the Persian Gulf War to more than two decades of faithful pastoral leadership, he lived a life marked by sacrifice, conviction and deep devotion to God, his family, and to people. He was a guiding light, a covering to many, and a vessel through which countless lives were impacted.

There are no words that can fully carry the weight of this loss, but we stand together in love, unity, and prayer. We thank God for His promise that He has prepared a place for us, and as we honor Pastor Eure's eternal rest, we find comfort in knowing he is now reunited with his beloved daughter Gabrielle Nicole, who transitioned on February 6, 2026.

We would like to thank everyone for your prayers and support in the days ahead.
