Well said Rev. Lyle. Interestingly, this is part of this week sermon scripture. Matt 18:15-20. Hope to see you Sunday. 💟☮️

Love Without Bounds

"Where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them." — Matthew 18:20

Faith isn't found only within four walls or behind traditional lecterns; it thrives wherever genuine love, community, and connection exist. God’s grace reaches into every moment of our lives—over shared morning coffee, quiet conversations, and tender moments with the ones we cherish.

When we hold space for one another in love, we reflect the very nature of the Divine. Christ's message has always been one of radical inclusion, compassion, and boundless love that transcends societal borders. Today, rest in the knowledge that you are fully seen, deeply valued, and unconditionally loved exactly as you are.

-Rev. Lyle Sorrell, The LGBT Christian Network

Yom Ha’Nikagon – Temple Cleaning Day

This past Sunday was a beautiful reminder of what it means to be community together. For more than three years, Faith Family United Church of Christ has been blessed to worship at Congregation Beth Shalom on Bryan Road in Brandon. Over that time, our relationship has not only continued but grown in friendship, trust, and shared purpose.

On Sunday, members of Faith Family UCC joined with members of Beth Shalom for Yom Ha’Nikagon — Temple Cleaning Day. Side by side, we cleaned the inside of the synagogue, organized the outdoor storage shed, and refreshed the sign. There was laughter, teamwork, and the simple joy of doing something meaningful together.

After the work was done, we gathered for snacks and lemonade, sharing stories and strengthening the bonds that make our partnership so special. It was a day filled with gratitude, cooperation, and the spirit of neighborliness that both our communities cherish.
