One Year Down!!

Well December 4th, 2012 marks the one year anniversary of Intersect Community Church.  One year ago we opened our doors to the Palouse to provide a joyous, safe, and healing community for people to grow in their relationship with Jesus.  It has been a prosperous year for us full of excitement, growth, and challenge.  If you want to see what it looked like, check out our 1 Year Celebration Video
