TCATB Business Directory

The Church At The Beach Business Directory

The Church At The Beach Business Directory is designed to connect those inside the church with one another.  It is also designed to connect believers and non-believers through business.

Our directory makes business visible to the congregation and congregations respond by patroniizing a Christian brother or sister. It is a reciprocall relationship that benefits everyone. While church business directories are a great resource to all types of businesses, there is a particularly strong range of benefits of a Church Business Directory for small business owners.
