The Messenger

Love:


A Heartfelt Thank You!


My little heart is truly full of gratitude! I want to sincerely thank everyone involved for the beautiful Pastor Appreciation poster, thoughtful cards, kind words, and expressions of love.


Each gesture meant more to me than words can adequately express. Ministry is not always easy, but moments like these remind me of the incredible blessing it is to serve God’s people.


I never take for granted the privilege of being your pastor. Your love, encouragement, prayers, and support mean so much to me.


I’m always reminded that people don’t have to be nice , and when they are nice , they don’t have to be nice to me! 



It is truly an honor to serve God by serving you!



Lead:


Growing Together in God’s Word!


There is something powerful about an entire church studying, learning, and growing together!


For the next three weeks, our Sunday School classes and Bible Study groups will study the same lessons and Scriptures, allowing our entire church family to grow together in God’s Word.


My hope is that these lessons will extend beyond the classroom sparking meaningful conversations around dinner tables, among friends, within families, and throughout our church. When we study together, we grow together!


Can’t attend Sunday School or Bible Study? You can still be part of the journey! Each week’s lesson will be available below for you to read, reflect, and stay connected wherever you are.


I invite everyone to join us for these next three weeks. Bring your Bible, bring your questions, and come ready to grow together in faith!
