UPCOMING EVENTS
Sunday, November 8
Mud Creek Campus
In the garden of Gethsemane, on the night before the cross, Jesus does not hold it together. He falls to the ground, tells his friends his soul is overwhelmed, and asks God for exactly what he wants. Many of us were taught that asking for help is a sign of weakness, so we carry our burdens quietly. Jesus shows us that honest prayer begins with telling God the truth about what we need.
Promise Road Campus
Family can be a source of deep love—and deep complexity. When Jesus redefines family, he opens the door to a broader, more inclusive understanding of belonging that goes beyond biology or obligation. This week, we’ll explore how we can navigate complicated relationships while discovering the kind of connection God actually invites us into.

Love on a Leash is Back!
This event is for your child, grandchild, or any other young one in your life. Have them spend their own special reading time with a patient, lovable, and non-judgmental friend. All children are welcome but is ideal for reluctant readers. 10-minute time slots will be available for one-on-one time with the pups. Another furry friend will be around or just loving and petting. This program is offered in memory of Matthew Pearcy who loved animals of all kinds but also struggled with learning to read.
To sign up, contact Lisa Pearcy (lisatheot@comcast.net), or you can sign up here.
