If you hurt me, I will forgive,
And if you hate me, then I will love you.

And if you’re burdened, I’ll share the weight;
And if you’re hopeless, then let me show you:
There’s hope in the Jesus way.

I follow Jesus. I follow Jesus.
He wore my sin, I’ll gladly wear His name.
He is the treasure, He is the answer.
Oh, I choose the Jesus way. (Repeat chorus)

I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again.

Amazing love, how can it be
That You my King would die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true.
It's my joy to honor You.
In all I do I honor You.
In all I do I honor You.

Change my heart O God,
Make it ever true.
Change my heart O God
May I be like You.
You are the Potter,
I am the clay.
Mould me and make me,
This is what I pray. (Chorus)
1 Amazing grace! How sweet the sound�That saved a wretch like me!�I once was lost, but now am found,�Was blind, but now I see.
3 Oh, for the wonderful love He has promised,
Promised for you and for me;
Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon,
Pardon for you and for me.�Come home, (Come home,) come home, (come home,)�Ye who are weary, come home;�Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,�Calling, "O sinner, come home!".

4 And all forgiven tender hearts,
Forgiving others, take your part,
Sing praises, Alleluia!
You who long pain and sorrow bear,
Praise God, who knows your every care.
O praise God, O praise God,
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!

Here in this place the new light is streaming, shadows of doubt are vanished away.
See in this space our fears and our dreamings, brought here to you in the light of this day.
Gather us in, the lost and forsaken, gather us in, our spirits inflame;
Call to us now, and we shall awaken, we shall arise at the sound of our name.

Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
I can feel His mighty power, and His grace.
I can hear the brush of angel's wings,
I see glory on each face.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.

1. Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me bring your love.
Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord,
And where there’s doubt, true faith in you.
O Master, grant that I may never seek
So much to be consoled, as to console,
To be understood, as to understand,
To be loved as to love with all my soul.
Make me a channel of your peace.

Good Evening! Pastor Bryan here, sorry for the late post… work has been WORKING!

Tomorrow at WCC, we will gather for a special Sunday Worship as we honor what would have been Miss Mary Forlines’ 100th birthday.

During worship, we will have a special dedication remembering Miss Mary and our other WCC Saints for their and lasting impact on our church and church family. Following a brief devotion, there will also be an opportunity for anyone who would like to share a memory, story, or reflection.

After worship, we will gather in Ellis Hall for a celebration reception with cake, stories, slideshows, and fellowship as we continue remembering and giving thanks for a love that touched so many.

We hope you will join us tomorrow as we remember, celebrate, and give thanks for Miss Mary and all those whose faithful love and service continue to shape Winterville Christian Church.

We’ll see you tomorrow, WCC Family!

Happy Father’s Day!

Thank you to everyone who worshipped with us today at Winterville Christian Church. We are grateful for the opportunity to gather in faith, fellowship, and gratitude. Thank you Tyra Sparrow for leading us in worship today and delivering a meaningful message.

A special thank you to all who shared stories and memories of the fathers, mentors, and fatherly figures who have shaped your lives. Your stories reminded us that love, guidance, encouragement, and faithfulness come in many forms and leave a lasting impact on generations.

May we continue to honor and celebrate those who have nurtured, taught, supported, and loved us along life's journey.

Wishing all a blessed and joyful Father's Day!

🌿 It’s time for a Church Workday! 🌿

Next Saturday, June 6, from 9:00 AM–12:00 PM, we’ll be gathering for an “all hands on deck” yard work day at the church!

You are encouraged to bring any yard tools or equipment you have available, such as hedge trimmers, pruning shears, rakes, gloves, or anything else that might be useful (we really aren’t picky!).

Many hands make light work! We hope to see you there as we continue to care for and beautify our church grounds together!
