𝟏𝟕𝐭𝐡 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝’𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲 | 𝐀𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐥 𝟐𝟔, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔

Last Lord’s Day, we continued our journey through the book of Galatians, a powerful reminder of the gospel that transforms our identity and our lives.

Once, we were slaves, living without reverence for God, but through Christ, we have been redeemed and lovingly adopted into God’s family. What amazing grace that we are no longer bound, but are now called His children.

Because we are His, the Holy Spirit now dwells within us, guiding us, assuring us, and giving us the privilege to cry out to God as our Father.

Every time we gather as a local church, we are given a glimpse of heaven, a physical picture of a greater and eternal reality where God is worshiped in fullness and glory.

As a church family, we also rejoice together as we anticipate the upcoming wedding of our dear brother and sister in Christ. What a joy to witness God’s faithfulness in their lives.

Soli Deo Gloria.

15th Lord’s Day | April 12, 2026

Last Lord’s Day gathering, we were reminded of the beautiful truth that every believer in Christ is part of God’s family through faith. What a privilege to belong—not by works, but by grace alone.

We also reflected on how even in Paul’s time, there was strong opposition from false teachers who insisted that justification by faith in Christ alone was not enough. Yet the gospel remains clear and unchanging: salvation is found in Christ alone.

A sobering reminder for all of us that being surrounded by right doctrine does not always mean we have right devotion within. May our hearts not just know the truth, but truly live it out in worship and obedience.

We also gathered for our monthly prayer meeting, where as one body, we lifted our petitions to our faithful God. What a blessing to seek Him together in unity and trust.

Soli Deo Gloria!

14th Lord’s Day | April 5, 2026

“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” – Galatians 2:20

As we continue our journey through the book of Galatians, we are reminded that true faith in Christ confronts our fear of man and destroys any self-dependent kind of faith.

When we forget the gospel, we easily fall into the trap of fearing people and living enslaved lives—rather than walking in the true freedom we have in Christ.

Because of our union with Him, everything changes. Our decisions are no longer self-driven, but are shaped by Christ and for His glory. Our perspective, character, and even our speech are transformed.

Let us hold fast to the gospel and live in the freedom Christ has secured for us.

Soli Deo Gloria!

Praise God for His faithfulness as we concluded the 𝐅𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐌𝐚𝐧 Foundations Class.

By God’s grace, we are starting a new 6-week Foundations Class titled “𝑮𝒖𝒊𝒅𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆: 𝑭𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑲𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑾𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝑮𝒐𝒅.”

In this class, we’ll look at what the Bible really teaches about decision-making and how God guides His people. There are many ideas today about finding God’s will, but we want to be grounded in Scripture and grow in making wise and faithful decisions.

The class will be at 𝟗:𝟑𝟎 𝐀𝐌. Everyone is welcome to join!

13th Lord’s Day | March 29, 2026

Defending the gospel is never a light matter—it is a matter of life and death. As a church, we are called to preserve what is true and beneficial, guarding the message that saves and transforms.

In doing so, we bring glory to God. Like Paul, we are reminded to defend the gospel with wisdom, humility, and accountability, ensuring that everything aligns with what Scripture says.

We also thank the Lord for the start of our membership classes, a step toward deeper commitment and growth in the body.

May we continue to pursue true unity, not built on preferences or opinions, but grounded firmly in the true gospel according to Scripture.

Soli Deo Gloria.
