Dear Church Family and Friends, This Sunday, both services are all about hope. As the pandemic rages on, as the Taliban gains control of Afghanistan, and as Haiti recovers from a devastating earthquake, hope is in short supply. Almost every story in scripture speaks to our current circumstances, but none as pointedly as the story of Abraham’s family. This Sunday let’s gather, both virtually and in...

When we gather for worship this summer, we will focus on One Verse of Scripture each week. Our hope is that each verse will shape our thoughts and actions as we follow Jesus in our everyday lives. May these summer months be a season of recalibration, ordering our values, and bringing us all to a deeper surrender to God.

We will gather at the Miller Park Amphitheater 5 times over these next few months of summer to worship together. For each of these services, we will focus on one verse of Scripture that will help us live more thoughtfully as followers of Jesus.
