Youth Sunday, Reopening the Church, Happy Memorial Day (Pastoral Emphasis for 5/24)

  • Today, we resumed our Youth Sunday. Sis. Tikayla Downing delivered a message, "Are You Wheat or a Weed?" based on the parable of the weeds

  • We're currently doing a food drive to help students and families impacted by the Pandemic. The food drive will run through May 30. Please drop off non-perishable food items at the church during the drop-off times: M, W 6-7pm; Sat. 10am-12pm

  • Here's a quick update on the reopening of the church buildingThe elders & I will be meeting this week to start developing our reopening plan. We do not anticipate that we'll be gathering inside the building until NC hits phase 3 which may be in late summer or fall. Please pray that God would give us wisdom. I'm reminded of the Samaritan woman who asked Jesus about whether they were to worship God on the mountain or in Jerusalem. Jesus responded that the hour is coming when it will be neither the mountain or Jerusalem because God is spirit and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth. The location of our worship is secondary to how we should worship Him.


  • Happy Memorial Day! Memorial Day is the time to remember those who sacrificed their lives in service to our country.

  • Please pray for the families who have lost loved ones serving in the military. 

  • John 15:13 says "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends".  Of course, Jesus demonstrated the greatest love and sacrifice for He gave His life for His enemies to make us His friends.
