This morning we had a bit of fun with a video of highlights from Pastor David Tran’s time at RINAZ, as this is his last Sunday as our interim pastor. We presented him with a card signed by the congregation along with a 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback Highland Green Metallic 1/24 Diecast Model Car.

Thank you for everything, Pastor Tran! We’ll miss you and your wife, Marilyn, of Tran Family Ministries!

25 years later, September 11 is still a day that holds a lot of weight.

We’re remembering the lives that were lost, the people who ran toward others when they needed help and the families who have carried the loss of someone ever since.

Today, we’re holding them close in prayer and taking a moment to remember. 🤍
