Thanks to all who participated in the Soul Warming fundraiser on Sunday! Your generosity helped us raise over $3,000 that will go towards sending our kids and youth to Glen Lake Camp this summer!

Our Soul Warming fundraiser is tomorrow, February 11th! We'll have creative bowls painted by our students, tasty homemade soup and bread for sale from 9 am-12 pm in the Parlor. Proceeds go towards sending our kids and teens to summer camp - our goal is to pay half the cost for each student attending. We hope to see you tomorrow!

2024 is an election year, which comes with many challenges. The news cycle is constantly reminding us of the hostility and ugliness of American politics. Social media becomes a seemingly inescapable battleground. We can't sit around the dinner table with certain family members. Even those of us in church have a difficult time respecting our congregations' diversity of political opinions. How can we stay connected when our world is so divided? How can we exercise our convictions with compassion? What are the best practices for handling election-related stress and anxiety? The purpose of this group is to equip members of our church and community to model healthier practices for monitoring and maintaining their faith commitments, mental health, and personal relationships throughout an election year. We will look to scripture and to one another for guidance and reassurance that we can engage politics this year with grace, hope, and love.

Praying you all stay safe during this frigid weather!

Today, we honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and reflect on the enduring power of his dream for a world united in equality, justice, and love.

It was announced in worship today that Pastor Ramiro’s last Sunday will be January 28 as he prepares for a new appointment. We will miss him greatly. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks for his dedicated service to our church. As sad as it is to say goodbye, we’re grateful to be a congregation that raises up faithful leaders no matter where they serve. His spiritual guidance, compassion, and commitment have left a lasting impact on our church. Join us in praying for Pastor Ramiro and his family during this time of transition.

We are so grateful for our partnerships with AISD!
