This isn’t a commitment—just a conversation.

Last Sunday, we dug into Ephesians 2:1–10 and were reminded of the incredible power and grace of God.

Before Christ, we were dead in our sins. But God, rich in mercy, made us alive together with Christ. What an amazing truth!

“If God can save you from the death that Paul describes here, is there anything God cannot do? And the answer is: of course not.

Your health is failing but God is the Ultimate Healer.
Your marriage is struggling or broken but God is the Ultimate Peacemaker.
You, or a loved one, is lost in depression but God is the Ultimate Hope.
Your finances are at extremes and it seems hard to make ends meet but God is the Ultimate Provider.
You’ve wronged someone else but God is the Ultimate Redeemer.
..If we can be as lost as we were, as lost as Paul describes, but God sent His Son to die in our place and the tomb is empty, then there is nothing outside of God’s sovereignty!”

🙏 What a meaningful evening together at Prayer Night!

Last night, we gathered as a church family for a special time of worship and prayer. It was encouraging to lift our voices together in praise and then spend time praying both as a whole church and in smaller groups.

Thank you to everyone who joined us as we praised God for all He has done and faithfully petitioned Him for what He will do in the days ahead. ❤️

🙏 Prayer Night TONIGHT! 🙏

Join us at the church this evening at 6:15 PM as we gather to seek the Lord together in prayer.

Whether you’re carrying a burden, celebrating an answered prayer, or simply want to spend time praying with your church family, we’d love for you to be there.

“The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” — James 5:16

📍 See you tonight at 6:15 PM!

🙏 What a sweet time together at our 5th Sunday Slowdown!

Throughout service, during the dedicated times of prayer, we:

✨ Thanked God for the many ways He has faithfully cared for us.
✨ Asked Him for wisdom in specific areas of our lives.
✨ Prayed for the humility and strength to obey Him in various circumstances.

We were reminded that prayer is not just something we do—it is one of the ways God shapes our hearts to trust Him more fully. ❤️

✨ 5th Sunday Slowdown is TOMORROW! ✨

Join us for a simpler, slower-paced service focused on what matters most:

🙏 More prayer
🎶 More worship
📖 A shorter message
🤝 More time for fellowship

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Kids will be joining us in the sanctuary, so there will be no Kids Ministry this Sunday.

We’re excited to slow down, seek the Lord together, and enjoy extra time connecting as a church family. See you there! ❤️
