Mid-Week Update 12/3/25

You braved the weather and gathered to worship the Lord. I know some were not able to come because of being out of town, battling illness, and some because the roads were not great. It was still a joy to gather with you all. If you missed this past Sunday can watch the message here.

Prayer Meeting Tomorrow Night!!!
We will meet on Thursday, December 4th, for Prayer @6 pm. Childcare is provided.

Don't forget to come early this Sunday for coffee and treats starting at 9:45 am. It will be a great time for fellowship before we continue our series "A Lineage of Grace" as we highlight God's grace in the midst of brokenness. You may have friends or family members that you are reaching out to who think church is just for people who have it all together. This will be a great opportunity for you to invite friends to encounter the God who came in the flesh and meets us in our brokenness with the amazing grace of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. During the series, we will also have folks from our church sharing their stories of how God's amazing grace came into their lives through Christ.
PARENTS: If you have younger children in church, note that several of the passages we study would likely be rated PG-13 if they were put into a movie.
Below is a list of the messages remaining, as there may be a particular one you want to invite others to.
