We’re beginning a brand-new 3-week sermon series as we close out our journey through the Gospel of Luke: “Life-Changing Conversations.” ✨

Over the next few weeks, we’ll explore how a single conversation with Jesus transformed people’s lives throughout Luke. Those conversations changed them, and they can change us, too.

This Sunday, we begin in Luke 19:1-10 with Zacchaeus and an encounter with Jesus that changed the direction of his life. 💙

Join us for worship this Sunday at 9:15am as we kick off our new series! We’d love to worship with you! 🙌🏼

🎒 One more reminder: this Sunday is the final day to bring your School Drive donations with you to worship! Thank you for helping us bless students and families in our community.

This Sunday, we’re wrapping up our “Let Me Tell You A Story” series in the Gospel of Luke with a powerful question: Who’s in and who’s out with God?

In Luke 18:9-14, Jesus tells the story of a Pharisee and a tax collector, revealing the difference between pride and humility, and reminding us just how deeply we depend on God’s grace.

Join us this Sunday as we close out this series together! We’d love to worship with you! 🙌🏼

Our School Supply Drive also begins this weekend! 🎒 Bring school supplies with you this Sunday or next Sunday as we come together to support students and families in our community.

PANORA, GOD IS BUILDING SOMETHING INCREDIBLE!!! 🙌🏼⛪

By God’s grace and through the faithful generosity of our Panora church family, $1,585,235 total has been given or pledged over the next three years!! 👏🏼

That is more than $1 million beyond our $500,000 Firm Foundation Goal and gives us incredible momentum toward our $2.5 million Build Our Home Goal!

After continued conversations with our leadership teams, outside contractors, and several individuals and groups who have generously offered to donate services to help reduce construction costs, we are incredibly grateful for the ways God continues to provide. Because of that provision, we feel confident sharing some incredibly exciting news:

WE ARE PREPARING TO BEGIN CONSTRUCTION ON OUR NEW CHURCH HOME THIS SPRING OF 2027!!! 🚧🏗️🛠️🎉

There is still more to come, but today, we simply want to say thank you. Thank you for being the church and for responding so generously, faithfully, and prayerfully to what God is doing in Panora.

The future is bright, and God is only getting started right here and right now! 🥹💙🩵

🏡 We will be celebrating our big reveal this Sunday at worship, Hope Local KC is getting closer to moving into their new home, and Cedar Valley is continuing to make their new church feel more and more like home! 👏🏼😊 God is on the move!!

🎶 Worship Night is Friday, August 21 at 7:00pm! Join us in person at Hope WDM or check with your site leaders to see if they’ll be tuning in from your site location.

🎒 School supply drives are almost underway! Be on the lookout for information for how your site can help support students, teachers, and families in your community.

💬 Alpha begins in September! Keep an eye on our website and social media for more information on how you or someone you know can get involved.

🙏🏼 As summer comes to a close, be praying about who God may be inviting you to reach with the everlasting love of Jesus. You never know who may be looking for a church family just like yours!
