What if you’re closer to hope than you think?

In this new series, Stories That Matter, we’re exploring the real, honest moments people had with Jesus after the resurrection—moments where everything changed.

If you’ve ever felt unsure, searching, or just needed something real… this is for you.

We would love to see you this Sunday.

Love has the power to change communities—and history.

This video remembers the legacy of Clara Luper, whose nonviolent leadership and courageous love helped transform Oklahoma and the nation.

As we enter Valentine’s season, our Texoma Parish churches are launching the What If Love? series and asking a simple but challenging question: What if love led our choices?

Join us beginning this Sunday as we explore what bold, courageous love looks like in everyday life. All are welcome. ❤️ What if love…

As we step into this new year together, we give thanks for the life and movement we see across each of our churches. We are witnessing growing momentum—in faith, love, and participation—and we trust God is not finished with us yet.

We enter this new season prayerfully, asking God’s will to guide each congregation and each leader. The work before us is holy work—but it is not always easy. As we serve as the hands and feet of Christ, we pray for safety, courage, strength, and deep trust for all who are leading, serving, and showing up in love.

🕯️ January will center us again on Jesus, John the Baptist, and the call to live as God’s light in the world.
❤️ February will invite us into our denominational focus on responding to the world in love—discipling, welcoming, and inviting others to turn toward Christ as we walk our spiritual journeys together.

If you haven’t yet worshiped with one of the churches of the Texoma Parish, consider this your invitation. There is a place for you here—and this is going to be a great year.

May God bless our steps as we move forward together.

Church leaders across Texoma Parish, we invite you to look ahead and prayerfully plan for these upcoming District Training opportunities.

How to participate: Choose the Zoom trainings that best fit your church’s needs

We strongly encourage at least one representative from each church to participate in each Zoom session, if possible

Please plan to attend ONE District Workshop on a Saturday

🗓️ January 17 (Pauls Valley)
🗓️ January 31 (Poteau)

These Saturday workshops offer the same training content, and many will choose January 17 since it is closer for most

🚗 Carpool option
If you’re interested in attending a Saturday workshop and would like to carpool, let us know—we’re happy to help connect folks!

These trainings are designed to equip and support your leadership teams as we serve faithfully together.

📖 “…to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up.”
