Happy Father’s Day

Today, we honor and celebrate all the fathers and father figures in our lives—those who have nurtured, guided, protected, and provided. Your steady presence is a reflection of God’s faithful love, and we thank Him for you.

We also recognize that Father’s Day can bring a mix of emotions. For those who have lost their fathers, never knew them, or carry wounds from those relationships, please know this:

“A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling.” —Psalm 68:5

Whether today brings joy or sorrow, may you find peace in the arms of our Heavenly Father, who never fails and never forsakes.

Happy Father’s Day.


A Testimony of Reconciliation

Evangelist Tayon Williams Dancy shared a personal testimony of thanks—a powerful witness to God’s ability to bring healing and reconciliation. Through God’s grace, she experienced restoration in her relationship with her late father. Her story reminds us that no wound is too deep, and no relationship too broken, for God to redeem.

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...
