Join Us This Sunday! ✨
There is a seat saved just for you this weekend, and we would love to worship alongside you! Whether you are a lifelong believer, full of questions, or just looking for a community to call home, you are welcome here exactly as you are.

We are gathering this Sunday at 9:30 AM to sing, pray, and dive into God's Word together.

📖 This Week's Focus:
Sermon Title: Faith that Trusts the Promise

Scripture: Romans 4:13-25

Life often throws us into seasons of waiting, uncertainty, or doubt. This Sunday, we’ll look at the life of Abraham and explore what it truly means to hold onto hope and trust in God's promises, even when the circumstances around us seem impossible. It's going to be an encouraging reminder that the One who made the promise is entirely faithful.

"He did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God..." — Romans 4:20

Come a few minutes early to grab a cup of coffee and connect. We can't wait to see you this Sunday at 9:30 AM!

Bring a friend, bring your heart, and let’s worship together! 🙌

WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT

Throughout the week, moments will arise that seem ordinary at first glance. Within those situations, something meaningful may be unfolding. Conversations may carry more weight than expected. Encounters with others may become opportunities to show care. Hesitation can surface, especially when the next step feels unclear. In those times, remember that God’s presence is already there ahead of you. Patience can shift the tone of a tense situation. Kindness can speak louder than words. Grace-filled truth can open doors that force never could. Small choices often create lasting impact. Faithfulness in the everyday shapes a life that points toward Christ. Trust that what you do matters, even when the results are not immediately visible.

WEEKLY MEDITATION PRAYER

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, draw my attention back to You in the quiet of this moment. My thoughts often drift in many directions, so bring them into focus. Uncertainty can linger, yet Your presence remains steady. Competing demands fill each day, but Your voice leads toward what truly matters. Shape my heart so that truth takes root deeply within me. Every decision I make, guide it toward Your purpose. Awareness of Your work can be easy to miss, so open my eyes to what is already unfolding around me. Courage is needed to respond faithfully, so strengthen me to follow through. Self-reliance pulls at me, yet Your Spirit provides what I need. Peace begins to settle when I rest in who You are. Let my words be shaped by grace and my actions guided by compassion. Form my life in such a way that others can see Your love through me. With trust in Your presence, I move forward into what lies ahead. I love You. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Good morning, church family! ☀️ We are so glad you are joining us for worship today, whether you are with us in person or watching online. If you’re tuning in live, say hello in the comments and let us know where you’re watching from!

Today on this Trinity Sunday, we reflect on the sermon, “In the Name of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit” from Matthew 28:16–20.

Jesus speaks to ordinary people — people with doubts, questions, and growing faith — and reminds them that they are not sent alone. In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we are claimed, redeemed, and empowered for the journey ahead.

The Father who created you knows you by name.
The Son who gave His life for you meets you in your brokenness with grace and redemption.
The Holy Spirit walks with you daily, giving strength, wisdom, and guidance.

Transformation happens when God’s truth moves beyond our heads and takes root in our hearts and actions. Growth does not come from trying harder on our own, but from staying connected to Christ.

No matter what you are facing today, remember where your strength comes from. You are sent in the name of the Father, who loves you, the Son, who redeems you, and the Holy Spirit, who empowers you.

We are thankful to worship together today! ✨

WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT

Look closely at what unfolds around you this week. God often works through moments that seem ordinary at first. A simple interaction, a quiet prompting, or a situation that requires patience can become an opportunity to live out your faith. You are not expected to have every answer. What matters is a heart that is willing to respond. When something stretches you, consider that it may be shaping your trust. When a situation calls for boldness, it may be the right time to step forward. Pay attention to how you engage with others. The way you listen, the care you show, and the choices you make can reflect Christ more than you realize. Move through this week with awareness and intention. God is active, and you are part of what He is doing.

WEEKLY MEDITATION PRAYER

Gracious God, in the middle of this week, quiet my heart so I can become more aware of You. Let me notice the places where You are already at work instead of rushing past them. When I encounter uncertainty, steady my spirit and guide my decisions. In moments that require courage, strengthen my resolve to follow through with faith. When distractions pull at me, refocus my attention on what matters most. Shape how I respond to others so that grace is evident in both word and action. Give me wisdom to recognize opportunities to serve, even when they seem small. Create within me a willingness to move when You prompt and to trust when the path is not fully clear. Deepen my relationship with You as I walk through each day. Form in me a life that reflects Your presence in real and visible ways. I love You. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day weekend, let’s take an intentional moment to reflect on the deep cost of our freedom. We lift up in prayer all those who gave their lives in service, and we pray for God’s peace to surround their loved ones.
