THIS SUNDAY:

Practicing Generosity 
Part 2: Stewarding God's Gifts with Open Hands
Text: 1 Chronicles 29:10-20; Psalm 24:1-2

Join us this Sunday as we continue our "Practicing Generosity" series with "Stewarding God's Gifts with Open Hands." Building on last week's theme of gratitude, we'll explore how recognizing God's ownership frees us to manage His blessings faithfully and generously. Drawing from scriptures like 1 Chronicles 29:10-20 and Psalm 24:1-2, we’ll leave Sunday with a host of practical insights, inspiring stories, and a challenge to live with open hands. See you in your place!



Thanks to your generosity, we collected enough to pack over 24,000 meals for Rise Against Hunger!!! Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen!

Don't forget to register for our meal packing party which will be on Sunday, November 9th from 4PM-6PM. This is an amazing experience for the whole family!
