ANNOUNCEMENTS

10:00am SUNDAY SERVICE!

Just a friendly reminder that this Sunday due to ABATE, our service will kick off a bit later at 10:00am! This Sunday we will celebrate All Saint's Sunday. This special occasion is a heartfelt tribute to all saints—both the celebrated and the unsung heroes of faith—who have walked among us. It serves as a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness between the living and the departed in the Body of Christ.

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS


As the crisp autumn air settles in, it’s that time of year again when we embrace the Daylight Savings! This Sunday, don’t forget to “fall back” and savor an extra hour of sleep. Whether you use that precious time to indulge in a cozy morning with your favorite book, enjoy a leisurely breakfast, or simply catch up on those Z's. Happy Daylight Savings!

UPCOMING: THIS WEEKEND!
