Welcome to Elevation

We like to say Elevation is a place for the spiritually curious. If that’s you, you’ll fit right in.
Elevation is a young, vibrant church where students, families, and people of all ages gather to celebrate God and the journey of life.


Join us on Sunday mornings at 9am where we gather as a community at 22 Willow.
