We had our Church Family Meeting today after the service. A few items from the meeting...

Please join us on Saturday, May 8th, at 9:00 am ET for our next Virtual Theological Seminar on “Thinking Biblically About Transgenderism”. Our guest speaker will be Dr. Peter Goeman, a professor at Shepherds Theological Seminary in Cary, NC. He will help us understand the worldview behind transgenderism and how we can respond from a biblical worldview. Please register here for the free seminar.
In 2019, we had a PACKHope event with other churches to package seeds to send to countries in need of a sustainable food supply. We are now preparing for another large PACKHOPE event with Unto, the humanitarian aid ministry of Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ International). On Saturday, July 10th, the event will be held outside on the field next to the church. We will gather with members of at least four other churches to package 120,000 rice & bean meals for distribution by Unto to refugees and food insecure communities in some of the toughest places on earth – Africa, The Middle East, Latin America, and Central Asia. For more information, please contact Minister Matt Darby or Elder Sean Cherry.
Those of you who have children in the youth ministry have already heard the announcement, but I want to let everyone know that Sis. Tracy Dunn will be stepping down as Youth Director on 6/30. Sis. Tracy will be focusing on mentoring and discipling young ladies. I want to publicly thank Sis. Tracy for all of the years of service to help disciple our youth. I'm excited to announce that Jae and Kelly Smith will become our new Youth Directors.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community. --- Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’ This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season. --- History of the Vision Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
