THIS SUNDAY

May 10, 2026 - Mother's Day

Rev. Adam Spore, 8:30 am Traditional Worship

& 11:15 am Modern Worship

Rev. Val Stewart, 11:00 am Traditional Worship

 

He had washed their feet. He had broken the bread. And now, in the quiet of that upper room, he was trying to prepare them for something they couldn't yet imagine — a world in which he would no longer be physically present, and they would have to find a way to carry on. His answer to their unspoken fear was a promise: that they would not be left alone. That something — someone — would come to dwell not just among them, but within them. This week, we sit with that promise and the mystery it carries - The Holy Spirit. Have you felt it? And do you know what to call it when you do? Join us Sunday as we ask these questions together.

  • This Sunday, we’re diving into the mystery of prayer. Prayer is something everyone can grow in, no matter how long we've been following Jesus. Jesus taught us to pray, and through prayer, we come closer to God, listen for His voice, and grow more like Him. We’ll also see that prayer isn’t just talking—it’s communion with God. So, come ready to explore how you can benefit from this powerful practice in your daily life.


  • Traditional Worship @ 8:30 and 11:00 am in Sanctuary
    Modern Worship @ 11:15 am in Fidelis Hall

    Have you ever felt like carrying a heavy secret was making you tired and sad? This week, we’ll talk about confession—how telling the truth to God helps us feel free and forgiven. We’ll learn from a Bible story where someone’s strength came back after they stopped hiding their mistakes. Plus, we’ll explore how admitting our wrongs can help us heal and love others better. Join us to discover how confession can change your heart and your life!


  • Traditional Worship @ 8:30 and 11:00 am

    Modern Worship @ 11:15 am

     

    This Sunday, we’re kicking off a new series about spiritually strengthening. Just like we need exercise for our bodies, we need spiritual habits to keep our faith healthy and growing. Together, we’ll explore simple practices to help us connect with God and find more joy, strength, and wisdom. Don’t miss this chance to start the year off with a spark that could change everything!


  • Combined Worship @ 11:00 in Sanctuary
    Rev. Val Stewart, Associate Pastor

    Have you ever lost something really important to you? Mary and Joseph once lost Jesus, but he wasn’t really lost—he was right where he needed to be! This Sunday, we’ll hear the story of how they found him and what it teaches us about growing in faith and looking for Jesus in the right places. We'll see you Sunday!


  • This Sunday Modern Worship will be holding a special service of scripture and contemporary Christmas music that tells the story of Jesus’ birth as we prepare our hearts to receive Jesus again. Come experience the nativity story through scripture and song as our Modern Worship band leads the music, and members of our congregation read the scriptures dear to our hearts. Pastor Val will bring a short message, “The Scandalous Birth Story” based on Matthew 1:18-25, and we will go out singing with joy, and filled with the hope, peace, and love of Christ in our hearts.
