November 13, 2026


Throughout the New Testament, believers are repeatedly reminded that the Good News of Jesus is intended to be shared. At the same time that we receive the amazing gift of salvation, we also receive an imperative from Jesus to go and tell. Telling other people about Jesus is not the unique calling of clergy or ministerial staff, it is a mandate for every person who has been redeemed. This Sunday we will be challenged by God’s word to fulfill this mandate and be ambassadors for Christ wherever we go.


Trevor Miller, Faith Formation Pastor, will be preaching in the Auditorium for the Contemporary Worship services; Michael Turner, Senior Pastor, will be preaching in the Sanctuary for the Traditional Worship services.


For those worshiping remotely, you're invited to watch our services online, on Facebook and YouTube.




Advent Offering


Every year we collect a special offering for missions during the Advent and Christmas Season that is split between a local and global partner. This year, we are excited to announce our 2026 partners. 


Our global partner will be the Grain Coast Annual Conference in Liberia, a new conference within the Global Methodist Church. Our Advent offering will provide funding to launch income-generating enterprises across their districts, equipping them to become self-sustaining so they can support their pastors, strengthen their churches and reach more people with the Gospel. Your gift is an investment in more than a ministry project—it is an investment in the long-term advancement of God’s Kingdom in Liberia where we have a long-standing partnership already. 


Our local partner will be Mission Lexington. Well known and well respected in the Lexington community, Mission Lexington serves the needs of our neighbors in a wide variety of ways. Last year, Mission Lexington served 26,000 people in our community (including 9,000 children) providing $2.5 million in groceries, meeting 69,000 needs and offering other types of essential assistance to those who have found themselves stuck in difficult circumstances. We are excited about being able to make a sizable impact in the reach of such a vital community ministry. 


As we quickly move toward the celebration of the birth of Jesus, we hope you will prayerfully consider how God might be calling you to serve our neighbors near and far this Christmas season!

Christmas: From Family to Family


It is time for our annual Christmas: From Family to Family gift collection. Visit the tables as you exit the worship services this Sunday to select a “gift tag” you plan to purchase. It will have a child’s gender, age and a price range. All of the information you need, including when to bring back the gifts, will be found at the tables on Sunday and at mthorebchurch.org/missions. We can only accept new, unused items. Please include the tag when you bring it back to us. We can’t wait to serve with you this Christmas as we spread the hope and joy of the Gospel from family to family!

It is truly the most wonderful time of the year and we are excited to see what God will do. Visit christmasatmthoreb.org to see all the wonderful things we have planned.
