Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.” — Romans 12:15

Jesus calls us to love our neighbors as ourselves, and love like that requires empathy. One of the best ways to grow in empathy is to look honestly at history and learn from it.

Juneteenth marks June 19, 1865, the day the last enslaved people in Galveston, Texas finally learned they were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. It’s a reminder of what happens when empathy and love for our neighbors are absent, and how long the cost of that absence can linger.

Today we mourn that history, and we rejoice in how far love and empathy have carried us since. We pray that we continue to grow in compassion toward one another, quick to listen, slow to judge, and willing to carry each other’s joy and sorrow as our own.

We celebrate America's independence on July 4, but our country has another Independence Day that’s just as important for us to celebrate.

Joy is easy when life is good. But what about when it's not?
Two thousand years ago, a guy named Paul sat under arrest, chained to a guard, with every reason to be miserable — and instead he wrote one of the most joy-filled letters in history. Not fake, chin-up positivity. Real joy, in the middle of real hardship.
Over the next eight weeks, we're walking through that letter, the book of Philippians, to figure out where that kind of joy actually comes from. Because if Paul could find it in a place like that, maybe it's more available to the rest of us than we think.
Wherever you're watching from, and whatever you're carrying right now — you're in the right place. Let's dig in together.

May was full and we have the memories to prove it. 6 families dedicated their little ones, a moment where this community stands up and says we’re in it with you. 17 graduates cheered across every finish line. 1 baptism bringing our year to 8 and counting. Cotton candy for Special Olympics and popcorn at Papertown. These aren’t just numbers, behind every single one is a person who was seen, known, and loved well. This is what happens when a village shows up for each other, inside these walls and out in this town. Thank you to our Pinnacle family for being that village. You are the reason any of this is possible!

Remembrance is an act of gratitude. Today we honor sacrifice, courage, and lives that will not be forgotten. Pause and remember, those who gave everything for others.

There's something powerful about a community sitting down together to watch its own story told on screen.

Sunday night we were honored to be part of the special screening of Papertown. We set up the popcorn and water station, and you all filled the rest with something that can't be manufactured: presence. The mill meant livelihoods, identity, and a way of life for so many in this community. Its closing left a mark. But Sunday night was a reminder that what was built here goes deeper than any industry and that Canton and Haywood County keep showing up for each other. Thank you to everyone who came, to the filmmakers, and to our volunteers, And a special thank you to those who were patient with us while we got our popcorn tech issue sorted out! ❤️ This community's story is still being written, and we're glad to be part of it.

Haywood Pathways Center feeds people, helps them find stable housing, and walks alongside them as they break cycles of trauma and make real, life-changing decisions. We’ve seen it firsthand , the work they do is the real deal. They have a significant need right now and a Friday deadline that matters. You can give directly to them at their link below.
If you’ve been looking for a place to put generosity to work close to home, this is it. 💙
