Nov. 12: Winston-Salem Chief of Police William Penn

A native of Winston Salem who began his career with the police department in 1997, Chief William Penn will speak about key local issues, including juvenile behavior and homelessness. He will share the department’s efforts to address these challenges and discuss ways he believes the community can help make a positive impact. Following his remarks, Chief Penn will open the floor for questions, providing the opportunity to engage directly with the Winston-Salem Police Department.

Please join us for a fellowship meal from 5:15 to 6 PM.

From 6 to 7 PM on most Wednesdays, following announcements and prayer, we engage various topics of faith with speakers, panels, and group discussion. Please see our youth and children’s ministry pages for information about concurrent programming for these ages.
