Memorial Day invites us to pause and remember. We honor those who gave their lives in service, recognizing the sacrifices made and the empty chairs that have been felt around many tables over many generations. For countless families, this weekend has carried grief, memory, and love that never fully fades. As we remember these lives given for others, may we continue pursuing God's vision for our world, marked not by violence, but by peace, reconciliation, and justice.

Jesus said, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God." Matthew 5:9

Sacrifice is most honored by peace.

Pray to invite God’s Spirit to renew and empower you as He did on Pentecost. Ask God to refresh your love, courage, and faith, especially where you feel tired or dull. Welcome the Spirit’s work in the coming week, trusting God to strengthen what is weak.

“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you.” (Acts 1:8)

𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘: Beginning this Sunday, we are moving to one combined worship service at 𝟵:𝟯𝟬 𝗔𝗠, and you're invited!

Come join us this Sunday for a special Pentecost worship service as we celebrate the gift and power of the Holy Spirit! Pentecost reminds us that the church was born not through human strength but through God’s Spirit still moving today to renew lives, bring people together, and help ordinary people share the hope of Jesus. This Sunday, we’ll celebrate God’s presence, unity across differences, bold faith, and the invitation for all people to encounter Jesus.

The Gospel is the good news that, through Jesus, God is restoring our relationship with Him and His vision for us on earth, by inviting us to turn to Jesus, trust in Him, and join His work of renewing the world through the Kingdom of God!
