A note from Pastor Brent.
Dear Church Family,
In just over three weeks, our church family will enter into a season of revival and renewal. The confusion and pain in our world, along with the houses flying up across our county, speak to the importance of these days. We know the Savior who is the answer to the pain and lostness around us. We know that His church is key to His plan for our future. We know we must have a miracle to accomplish what needs to be done for the sake of our families and neighbors.
Our theme is “The 7 Loves.” Across the weeks from Easter to Mother’s Day, we are going to explore the 7 great loves that ultimately define our lives. Each week will be packed with opportunities for setting new patterns and rethinking priorities. There will be beautiful opportunities to meet with God and to celebrate the love we share as God’s family. Together we will be challenged to take big steps as a church, and my prayer is that God will do important things in your life and the life of your family and friends. Before we are finished, we will see that when we love the right things, we find the power and clarity to live the right lives.
Between now and Easter, your job is to pray, invite friends, neighbors, and family members to join us for Palm Sunday and Easter, and prepare your own heart to hear from God.
Below you will find our Spiritual Growth Campaign calendar. Please prioritize these dates. Your engagement will be key to our success this year.
God is on the move among us. Let’s join Him in what He wants to do in us and through us. Our future is at stake; let’s not miss the moment.
