EQUIP Conference, My Hope Sunday, Watoto Neighbourhood Tour (Pastoral Emphasis for 2/22)

EQUIP Conference – March 13–14

Theme: DISCERNMENT

On March 13–14, we will host our annual EQUIP Conference, and this year’s theme is DISCERNMENT.

Together, we’ll explore:

  • What discernment is and why it matters

  • The purpose of discernment in the life of a believer

  • How to grow in discernment spiritually

  • How to apply discernment in both the church and today’s culture

In a world full of competing voices, shifting values, and cultural confusion, discernment is not optional—it is essential. This conference is designed to equip us to think biblically, live wisely, and respond faithfully.

The conference is free and open to everyone, so help us spread the word and invite your friends and family. Please register to assist us with food preparation and planning.


My Hope Sunday

My Hope Sunday is coming up on March 8, and we are asking every member to participate intentionally.

Each member is encouraged to:

  • Commit to inviting at least one unbeliever or unchurched person

  • Write down the name(s) of those you are praying for and inviting

  • Submit those names next Sunday

If you attend virtually, you can submit your names through the Contact Us form and select “My Hope Sunday” as the subject.

On that Sunday, we will clearly and joyfully share our hope in Jesus Christ. Begin inviting your guests this week and pray for open hearts and divine appointments.

Leading up to My Hope Sunday, we will be sharing testimonies of hope—real stories of God’s faithfulness.

One such testimony comes from Sis. Francine Thorne, who experienced the anguish of not knowing where her son was for a long time and the joy of seeing him found. Her story is a powerful reminder that even in our darkest moments, God remains present, active, and faithful.

Hope is not abstract—it is personal. And we look forward to sharing more stories of how God has moved in the lives of His people.


Watoto Neighbourhood Tour

 

We are honored to host the Watoto Neighbourhood Tour this Friday at 7:00 PM.

This inspiring evening will feature stories of hope, healing, empowerment, and transformation from mothers in Uganda and South Sudan whose lives have been changed by the love of Jesus. Their testimonies are living proof that the gospel is at work around the world.

We encourage you to invite friends, family, and neighbors to join us for this powerful night. We will also receive a love offering to support Watoto’s ongoing mission and ministry.

Let’s come together to celebrate what God has done—and what He continues to do—through His people globally.


Church Family Meeting

All members are asked to remain after the service today for our Church Family Meeting. This will be a in important meeting for vision, unity, and celebration as we move forward together in ministry for 2026..

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...
