My Hope Sunday, Virtual Prayer Rally, EQUIP Conference (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday where we welcomed many guests that members invited to join us for this church service. My message was "Hope in the Lord" from Psalm 33:17-22. There are many things in this world that are tempting for us to place our hope in. But we must avoid false hopes. Our hope must be in God's steadfast love. Only God can deliver and save us. One day we all must face judgment and only by faith in Jesus Christ will we be delivered from our deserved punishment to receive eternal salvation. Our hope waits for the Lord. In times like these, we can place our hope in the Lord.

Our next Virtual Prayer Rally is Tuesday from 7 to 8pm. In light of all that's happening in the world, we'll be praying through Acts 1:8... 
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” 
Join us on Webex. If you can't attend, submit your prayer requests online via our Prayer Request form. 



The EQUIP Conference is happening this Friday evening and Saturday morning (March 18-19). The conference is focused on equipping people for evangelism and discipleship. We'll have talks, lectures, panel discussions, and free books and swag for those who register and attend in person. Please register ASAP so we can plan and have the swag ready. You can register in Realm and on Eventbrite. Registration on Realm closes tomorrow but you can still register on Eventbrite please do so by Wednesday.

Minnesota School Shooting, Music Ministry Recruitment, Ark Encounter Trip (Pastoral Emphasis for 8/31)

Minnesota School Shooting Our hearts are heavy over the tragic school and church shooting in Minneapolis at Annunciation Catholic School, where two children lost their lives and many others—some as young as six—are recovering from serious injuries. Sadly, we couldn't get through a full week of traditional school before something like this happens. In this time of profound sorrow, let us hold close in prayer the grieving parents, families, and the entire Annunciation community. Though we cannot fully comprehend their pain, we can stand alongside them in faith, offering compassion, and intercession. May God bring comfort to those who mourn, healing to the wounded, and peace to a terrified community.  Of course, a mass shooting always brings up the issue for stricter gun laws. I agree we do need good legislation and sensible gun laws because it is the government's responsibility to protect its citizens. Ultimately, that will not solve our problem. For a country that has been ...
