Then the angel spoke to the women, "Do not be afraid!" he said. I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn't here. He is risen from the dead. Just as He said would happen. Come, see where His body was lying." - Matthew 28: 5-6.

Do you know what this means, friends? We are no longer a slave to death. Mercy, grace, undeserved favor, and reconciliation through the Blood of the Lamb.

Happy Resurrection Day!

And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit.

At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook, the rocks split and the tombs broke open. The bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs after Jesus’ resurrection and went into the holy city and appeared to many people.

When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and all that had happened, they were terrified, and exclaimed, “Surely he was the Son of God!”

-Matthew 27: 50-54
...Sunday's coming.

The Last Supper is often seen as a foreshadowing of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. These words below, when Jesus broke bread and shared wine with His disciples, were understood to be a prediction of His upcoming death and sacrifice on the cross for the salvation of all of humanity.

What a reminder as we enter into the somberness of what tomorrow holds. But don't worry, Sunday's coming.

Hey church family! As we approach Easter Sunday, let's take today to reflect on Jesus' journey towards the cross. In my personal Bible study time, I've been delving into the significance of Jesus' final teachings and preparations before his ultimate sacrifice—through journaling, and prayer and contemplation as we prepare our hearts to fully embrace the hope and joy of Easter.

Don't forget our fun Family + Friends Day tomorrow!!

January is Sanctity of Life Month! We CELEBRATE life! We believe that every human life has been fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God!

We're 11 days into the New Year already- can you believe that? What is God speaking to your heart? This verse has been ruminating in my heart this past week. Newness is fresh and exciting, and if you're living with Christ at the center of your life, it's a great representation of old life < new life.

For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives. ~Romans 6:4

Illness continues to spread through the church family. In an effort to avoid it becoming even more widespread, Pastor Josh and the deacons have decided to cancel the scheduled midweek service on Dec. 27. Thanks for your faithfulness to God and our church.

Tonight's Candlelight service has been canceled because of widespread sickness. Merry Christmas.
