Pastor’s Note


July 25, 2024


Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,


I want to express my deep appreciation to each of you for your warm welcome and steadfast support of our faith community since my arrival during the first week of July. Your hospitality and dedication have been invaluable, and I am truly grateful for your kindness and commitment.


Upcoming Sermon

The upcoming sermon will mark the transition from the Gospel of Mark to the Gospel of John. It will focus on the narratives of Feeding the 5000 and Jesus walking on the water, particularly Jesus' instructions to the disciples to "Gather up the leftover pieces" (TIC—The Inclusive Bible) “Gather up the fragments left over” (NRSV–New Revised Standard Version).
