Weekly Update: January 22, 2025

Word from the Pastor:

I pray this weekly newsletter finds you well and warm.  I hope you enjoyed our little Texas size snow storm, I know we did.  I wanted to take a moment and tell you all how much I appreciate you. How excited I am to serve alongside you in this beautiful part of Texas.  I pray that as we journey through the life of Jesus we will hear a story that we have been invited to join, rather than a simple message to explain.  We started a couple of weeks ago listening to John talk about all things pointing to Jesus, last week we read about the journey of discipleship and the invitation to allow Jesus to engage our prejudices so that we can be who we need to be to our communities.  

Have a great week and we'll see you on Sunday!
