Announcements – July 27th
This July, we are entering what we’re calling Selah Month, a Sabbath month where we intentionally pause, reflect, and realign our hearts with God. The word “Selah” appears throughout the Psalms and is believed to mean “pause and reflect.” Inspired by this, we’re taking the month of July to slow down, rest, and spend intentional time with God – both individually and as a church.
We will still gather each Sunday for worship services, but we are resting from all other church activities during this month. This space is meant to allow our teams, leaders, and families to recharge and experience renewal.
Each day of the month, we’ve provided a daily scripture devotional focused on rest, renewal, and intimacy with the Lord. Our hope is that this time allows each of us to recharge spiritually, emotionally, and physically as we create space for God to speak, and prepare ourselves for the remainder of the year.
We’re excited to announce our Annual Uniform Giveaway, happening on Saturday, August 2nd, from 10:00 – 11:30 AM. This is a powerful opportunity for us to bless children in our community as they head back to school, and we’re asking each of you to give and/or volunteer to help make it happen. Every $40 sponsors a full set of uniforms for one child. Whether you choose to give, volunteer or both, your support makes a difference! To volunteer, sign up here. To give, you can use Zelle or text-to-give using the keyword “uniform.” Let’s come together to make sure every child starts the school year strong!
We are hosting the next Bible Plan and Book Club, reading the book, Leading Well: A Black Woman’s Guide to Wholistic Barrier-Breaking Leadership by Jeanne Porter King. If you long to lead from a strong spiritual core rather than a set of expectations you had no part in setting, meet us Wednesday, July 30th, at 7PM for a great discussion. This book and Bible Plan offers you the inspiration, encouragement, and practical tools to make leading well a reality in your life. Sign up today!
Calling all men! You’re invited to join us for our bi-weekly Men’s Bible Discussion. We meet every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, and each time we gather, we dive into powerful and relevant discussions on topics that matter to our walk as Christian men. This August, we’re diving into Preston Perry’s impactful book How to Tell the Truth. We will explore how to share our faith with honesty, love, and conviction in today’s world. If you’re looking for authentic brotherhood and biblical truth that challenges and equips, this is for you. Sign up today, mark your calendar, bring another brother or two with you, and we’ll see you August 6th.
The Singles Ministry is hosting a special Check-In & Connect event, Sunday, August 10th, right after service. It’s a casual, encouraging space for us to come together, share how life’s been going, and support one another. Whether you’ve been active in the ministry or it’s been a while since we’ve seen you, this is for YOU. Our goal is simple: to strengthen connections, listen, and uplift one another. Got ideas? Just need to be around good people? Come through—we’d love to see you.
