CHURCH OF THE HOLY APOSTLES
Church of the Holy Apostles (“COTHA”) was built to the glory of God. The church building and surrounding property is a tool for the congregation of COTHA to minister to the people of God. Use of the building and surrounding property by the congregation and the people of the community will serve to spread the gospel, reveal God's love and the good news to all who visit our place of worship.
