A Glimpse of Our Future
In worship last Sunday, we witnessed something beautiful—our children leading us in faith.They read scripture, sang songs, played instruments, and even helped serve communion.
One young girl stood in the very spot where she was baptized just months ago.
From the joyful sound of He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands to the steady rhythm of Amazing Grace played on piano by a young acolyte, our children reminded us that God is at work among us—calling us to stretch, reach, and grow together.
Just as the children stood on tiptoe to lead us in prayer, we, too, are invited to reach out in faith.

Looking Ahead
As we look toward 2026, we’re dreaming big.
Our goals include continued ministry expansion and important capital improvements—supported through tithes, offerings, building fund contributions, and legacy gifts.
Every gift, large or small, helps accelerate the movement of the Spirit in our church and community.
Together, we seek.
Together, we reach out.
Together, we find God at work among us.
“When we respond to the mission of our beloved church and decide to uproot every obstacle along the way, the movement of the Spirit is accelerated. Together, we can make all the difference.”
— Dr. Darren M. McClellan, Senior Pastor
