Pastor Grant brought a beautiful sermon for Trinity Sunday.

In the beginning, world was void and full of darkness. God brought light and the chaos was brought into order.

The same thing he did for the world, he does in our lives. Because sin enter the world, our lives are in chaos and we try to bring order with the things of this world, May it be politics, relationships, or addictions.

God created us to be in a relationship with him. He never meant for us to live in chaos, but in peace. He sent Jesus Christ to be our savior. He died on the cross for our sins, experiencing the disorder and darkness in order to spare us from it.

Through him we are brought back to God and the darkness no longer separates us. Because of him, we brought out of darkness and into his marvelous light.

Tomorrow, we gather to celebrate one of the most beautiful mysteries of our faith: the Holy Trinity. Trinity Sunday is unique on the church calendar. While other festivals mark historical events—like Christ’s birth at Christmas or the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost—this day focuses entirely on the profound reality of who God is: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Historically, this feast day grew out of centuries of deep reflection and intense debate in the early Church. It was officially established on the global church calendar in the 14th century to anchor our hearts in the foundational truth that our God is not an isolated deity, but a perfect, eternal community of love.

To help us grasp this mystery without falling into error, we turn to the Athanasian Creed, one of our three ecumenical creeds. While it can feel dense, it acts as a powerful guardrail for our faith. It reminds us that we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity—neither confusing the Persons nor dividing the Substance. It beautifully declares that the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, yet they are not three Gods, but one. The Trinity matters because it means God’s very nature is love and relationship, and through Christ, we are invited directly into that holy fellowship!

👉 Come to our Trinity Sunday Service at 11:00 AM! Let’s celebrate the Father who creates us, the Son who redeems us, and the Spirit who sustains us. See you there! 🙌

Deacon Brian gave a wonderful message for Pentecost Sunday.

God communicates with his church in a way that is clear and direct. His spirit poured out on the early church allowing them pray and proclaim the works of God in different languages so all could believe in him.

Faith comes by hearing the word of God. The law helps us understand our sinful nature. The gospel leads us to our savior, Jesus Christ, and what he did for us on the cross. He made a way for us to be forgiven of our sin and reconciled back to God.

Whoever calls on the name of the Lord, shall be saved.

🔥 Happy Pentecost Weekend, Church Family! 🔥

Tomorrow we celebrate Pentecost, one of the most powerful and hope‑filled days in the Christian year. Fifty days after Easter, as the disciples gathered in prayer, the Holy Spirit descended like a rushing wind and tongues of fire rested on each of them. In that moment, God fulfilled His promise: “I will pour out my Spirit on all people.” The Church was born, empowered, and sent into the world with courage and purpose.

Pentecost reminds us that the same Spirit who moved in that upper room is still moving today. He comforts us, convicts us, strengthens us, and equips us to live out our faith with boldness. In a world that often feels divided, anxious, or weary, Pentecost declares that God is still breathing new life into His people.

So how do we live out the meaning of Pentecost today?

1. Invite the Spirit to lead your daily life. Begin each morning with a simple prayer: “Holy Spirit, guide my thoughts, words, and steps today.”

2. Use your gifts to serve others. Pentecost reminds us that every believer is gifted for the good of the Church and the world.

3. Build bridges, not barriers. The Spirit empowered the disciples to speak in many languages—Pentecost calls us to listen, love, and reach across differences.

Tomorrow, let’s celebrate the God who still ignites hearts and transforms lives. Join us for our Pentecost Sunday service at 11:00am. Come expectant. Come open. Come ready for renewal.

Deacon Brian gave a wonderful message for Ascension Sunday.

If you’ve ever suffered grief, it can isolating and can cut us off from everything around us.

The message of the ascension is that we are never alone.

Our sins separated us from God. Jesus took on our sin and died on the cross to atone for it. He didn’t stay in the grave. He rose three days later with all power and authority from the Father. Now he is always with us and guides us in all circumstances, grief, joy and everywhere in between.

May our eyes and hearts see and know that Jesus is with us and for us.

Pastor Webster gave a beautiful sermon this morning.

No matter what is going on in the world, we will always look up to God and worship him. He has been good to us and we must be faithful and serve Him without wavering.

Fear no man, but have reverence for God for who he is and all he’s done. Be ready at all times and places to give an answer for your faith. Are you ready to share with others why you believe in Jesus? Ask yourself: Where is Jesus in my life today? How do you see him? How can you share the reason for your hope with someone else? Give your answers with a spirit of gentleness and reverence.

Take time each day for a heart to heart presence with the Lord. We will suffer for righteousness sake. Be ready when it comes. We have an assurance of hope in Jesus Christ.

Deacon Brian gave a wonderful message this morning.

We were all called to faith at different stages of life. The faith was nourished by our families and our church. Pay attention to what Jesus taught and who he is. He will manifest himself to us. As we keep his word, he will make his home with us.

The Holy Spirit will bring to our remembrance what Jesus taught us and he will keep us in the true faith. God is for us, dwelling in us, forgiving us, and guiding us. He won’t leave us comfortless, but will provide us his peace.

Deacon Brian gave a beautiful message today at church.

the door to the sheep pen looks like the cross. It was on the cross that Jesus bore our sins and died for us. We entered his death through baptism and are raised to life with a new spirit. We will one day rise physically into glory with him.

The trails of this life are the consequences of sin. Jesus is our shepherd leading us through.

Many voices clamor for our attention to lead us astray. Jesus calls us to repent and harken to his voice. He will restore to a life in him and make us complete.

Pastor Webster joined us today and gave a wonderful sermon.

God loves us so much that he wants us to have hope. Hope is beyond this moment. It’s a necessary thing for the well-being of all people. Many look for hope in different places. There is hope available to all those who look in the right place.

We are begotten to a living hope because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. A life giving sustaining hope is rooted in a relationship with him. Jesus is right there with us in the midst of the storm. Have faith in him.

Easter Monday is the day right after Easter Sunday—the day after Jesus rose from the dead. In the early church, this wasn’t just “the day after a holiday.” It was the beginning of a whole season of celebrating the resurrection. Many Christians around the world still treat Easter Monday as a continuation of the joy, hope, and new life that burst forth from the empty tomb.

Why does Easter Monday matter today?
Because the resurrection isn’t meant to be a one‑day event. It’s a reality we carry into our everyday lives. The same Jesus who conquered death on Sunday walks with us on Monday—into our routines, our work, our relationships, and our challenges. Easter Monday reminds us that resurrection hope is not confined to a sanctuary; it follows us into the ordinary places where we live and serve.

Here are three takeaways to ponder as we move through this day:

Resurrection changes how we face our week. Because Christ lives, we face Monday with courage, not fear.

New life is ongoing. Easter isn’t over—God continues to renew, restore, and reshape us daily.

Hope is practical. The empty tomb empowers us to forgive, to love boldly, and to live with purpose.

As you step into this new week, how will you carry the hope of the resurrection into the places God has called you?
