13th Sunday after Pentecost
Sermon Series: Forget Your
Sermon: Be Like Jesus
Scripture: Philippians 2:1-4

Forget Your Selfie challenges us to look beyond ourselves and discover the life Jesus calls us to live.
Have you ever stopped to ask yourself:
* What am I really living for?
* Who or what has my attention?
* Am I becoming more like Jesus—or more like the world around me?
* What would change if I focused less on myself and more on serving others?
* Could the life I'm looking for be found by putting Christ first instead of myself?��
Join us over the next several weeks as we explore what it means to trade self-focus for Christlike living—and discover the joy, purpose, and freedom that come from following Jesus.

FORGET YOUR 📱➡️❤️

What if following Jesus means looking beyond ourselves?

This Sunday, we continue our sermon series Forget Your with “Be Like Jesus,” exploring Philippians 2:1–4 and what it means to live with the humility, compassion, and selflessness of Christ.

Come worship with us as we consider what it looks like to put Christ first—and discover the joy and purpose that come with following Jesus.

❤️ Honoring Our Veterans Through Quilts of Valor ❤️

We were honored to celebrate several veterans with a special Quilts of Valor presentation recently. These beautiful, handmade quilts are a heartfelt way to recognize and thank veterans for their service and sacrifice.

A special thank you to Deb Waldron, Jackie Maurice, and all of the quilters and volunteers who helped make this meaningful presentation possible. We are grateful for the gifts of time, talent, and love that went into each quilt—and especially grateful for those who have served our country. 🇺🇸

11th Sunday after Pentecost
Sermon Title: What Are You Chained To?
Scripture: John 15:1-8
�What are you chained to?

We all have things we cling to—habits, expectations, worries, relationships, routines. But are they helping us grow, or are they holding us back?

In John 15:1–8, Jesus gives us the image of the vine and the branches and reminds us that a fruitful life comes from staying connected to Him.

So, what are you chained to? And what might change if you loosened your grip on the things holding you back and held tighter to Christ?

Join us this Sunday as we explore what it means to remain connected to the One who gives us life, strength, and purpose.

We'd love to worship with you.

What are you chained to?

Stress. Busyness. Fear. The need to be in control. Expectations. Past mistakes.

We all cling to something—but is it drawing us closer to Christ, or keeping us from the life He wants for us?

This Sunday, we'll explore Jesus' words in John 15:1–8 and discover what it means to stay connected to the True Vine. When we remain in Him, we find the strength, purpose, and freedom to bear lasting fruit.

Join us this Sunday!
