🌿 Women’s Small Groups are starting soon! 🌿

We’re creating spaces this fall for women to slow down, connect, have meaningful conversations, and grow together in faith. With five different groups and different days, times, and settings, there’s a place for you!

Whether you’re looking for a new community, hoping to build deeper relationships, or just ready to pull up a chair and connect, we’d love to have you join us.

Groups meet through November. Check out the options and find the group that works best for you!

Check out our NEW check-in stations!

Parents, this is your new weekly check-in spot! Each week, simply stop by the check-in station when you arrive, check your child in, and you’re ready to go.

We’re excited to make Sunday mornings a little easier, smoother, and more welcoming for your family!

See you Sunday!

Drop your back-to-school photos in the comments! We want to celebrate our church family by including them in a special video during worship this Sunday.

Whether you’re starting kindergarten or your senior year, heading off to college, teaching your first class or your thirtieth, driving a bus, serving in the cafeteria, coaching, working in the front office, keeping the halls clean, or supporting students in any way—we want to see you!

As a new school year begins, we’re praying for each of you.

May you choose kindness over comparison.
May you build bigger tables instead of taller walls.
May you have the courage to include someone who feels unseen.
May you remember that even the smallest acts of encouragement can change someone’s day.

Praying for every student, teacher, administrator, bus driver, custodian, cafeteria worker, coach, volunteer, and school staff member. May God give you wisdom, strength, joy, and peace as you step into this new school year.

Don’t forget to share your back-to-school photo in the comments below! 📚🍎

Our youth had the incredible opportunity to serve in Waynesville, NC, helping a family continue recovering from the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. Throughout the week, they built stairs, installed guardrails, reinforced support beams for a back patio, and completed painting projects throughout the home. Thank you to everyone who prayed for our team and supported the mission. 🤍

Our staff had the privilege of providing lunch for the Ooltewah High School Band during band camp! It was such a joy to support these talented students and give back to our local community. We love opportunities like this to serve and make a positive impact. Wishing the band a fantastic season ahead! 🎶💙
