Congrats to all of you 8th Grade Grads

♥️🖤🤍

Watching you all reach this milestone fills my heart with so much pride. 🎓✨ Each of you has worked hard, grown in your own unique ways, and overcome challenges to get here—and that is something worth celebrating.

Middle school is no small journey, and you made it through with strength, resilience, and determination.

High school is a new chapter, but you’re not walking into it alone. God goes before you, walks beside you, and never leaves your side.

Keep showing up, keep growing, and keep chasing after Him. I’m so proud of you all—Your future is bright, and each of you has something special to offer the world.

Congratulations to all of you on your 8th grade graduation—I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish next! 🎉

Daily reminder

03/14/2026

We are heading out of town for Spring Break tomorrow so we have just a few announcements for the Youth in our absence.

On Sunday the Youth will not have Sunday School Class, they will stay in the Sanctuary with the adults for an amazing word by our Pastor. It's great for the kids to be in there from time to time.

On Wednesday Night, we will NOT be running the Church Van. We WILL still have Youth that evening and have a guest speaker lined up that the kiddos will love to hear from. I hope they can still make it out this week!

I hope you kiddos have an awesome start to Spring Break and we will see you at church next Sunday!

xoxo

We took our HS Seniors out for the day to see David in Branson and it did not disappoint ♥️♥️♥️

They LOVED it!

I only snapped a few pics during last night’s Holy Spirit Led Service. These kids gave prophetic words over many of the adults last night and surrounded me at the keyboard when I lost it during worship 😭 it was definitely one of those “you had to of been there” nights.

So so thankful for these kids and what God is doing in their lives.

Tonight went a little differently than we had planned but the kids had some fun with these amazing residents. A lot of them were sick so we weren’t able to bring the entire youth inside the nursing home and go room to room like we planned. So we had to pivot and Kyle and Patrick took the majority of the kids to Sonic and I hung back with a handful of kids that stayed and played some games with the residents.

I walked away feeling kind of bummed after only giving the nursing home all of our premade goodie bags and snacks and 60+ handwritten cards…we were looking forward to handing to each and every resident

BUT

I’m sure the Lord will use these cards the kids made to brighten up their day and remind them that they’re seen, never alone, and deeply loved.

Sometimes you don’t get to see the full outcome in ministry but you keep going. You give what you feel led to, you say what you feel led too and let the Lord work 🙌 🙏🏻
