When grief hits unexpectedly, God sends His people to carry us. This powerful testimony shows how Jesus uses our church family as instruments of His love and compassion. 💕

Join us on Sunday as we come together to experience and share that same love and support as a church family.

During Sunday's sermon Rev. Derek Zeyl discusses how Jesus never argued, He just spoke truth and let it stand. There's power in speaking truth without feeling the need to justify or defend it. Sometimes the most profound conversations happen when we simply state what's true and trust it to do its work.

Join us on Sunday as we continue reflecting on this powerful way of speaking truth and living it out together.

This beloved hymn invites us to place God at the center of our lives, above every worry, distraction, and ambition.

TRUTH BOMB: The more you love someone, the harder it gets to speak honestly with them 💣

During Sunday's sermon Rev. Derek Zeyl ponders why do our closest relationships make truth-telling so complicated?

🙌 It's not about being perfect or having all the right answers - it's about faith! Just like the thief on the cross, Zacchaeus, and the woman caught in adultery, Jesus welcomes anyone who turns to Him. Your past doesn't disqualify you from God's family! ✝️

Join us on Sunday as we gather to celebrate this kind of grace-filled welcome and remember that faith, not perfection, is what draws us into God’s family.

This is one note from our church’s gratitude board.

Each Sunday, people take a moment to write thank-you notes to someone who’s made a difference in their life and add it to the wall.

It’s a simple practice that’s turning into something really meaningful.

Join us on Sunday and take part.

When words aren't enough to express our gratitude to God... 🙏 Sometimes we're so overwhelmed by His undeserved love and blessings that even a million angels couldn't capture what's in our hearts. What are you most grateful for today?

As we hold these prayers of gratitude close, we’d love to welcome you to join us on Sunday as we come together to worship, reflect, and give thanks as one community.

🤝 During Sunday's sermon Rev. Derek Zeyl ponders What does radical hospitality look like in the church? It's making room for everyone's unique quirks, different traditions, and even the things that seem strange to us. True faith shows itself through love that holds space for others.

We’d love to welcome you this Sunday as we continue reflecting together on what it means to make room for one another in faith and love.
