Current and Upcoming Worship Series

Prayer is where God shapes our hearts. In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus meets those asking for more faith, those healed yet slow to give thanks, and those tempted to give up too soon. In each encounter, he calls us to outgrow the prayers that keep us comfortable and to grow into trust that acts, gratitude that overflows, and perseverance that does not lose heart. Join us this October as we explore how deeper prayer helps us grow and mature in Christ, deepens our faith in the face of an uncertain future, and opens our lives more fully to God’s work in us and in the world.

October 5 – “Lord, Increase Our Faith!”

Luke 17:5–10: The prayer that wants more—but doesn't use what it already has.

October 12 – “Where Are the Other Nine?”

Luke 17:11–19: The prayer we forget to pray—thank you.

October 19 – “Pray Always and Do Not Lose Heart”

Luke 18:1–8: The prayer that gives up too soon.

Family can be one of life’s greatest blessings and one of its greatest sources of struggle. As the holidays approach, join us as we reflect on what family really means in light of the Gospel. We’ll explore how Jesus reorders our priorities, expands our sense of belonging, and invites us to find peace and reconciliation in all of our relationships. Whatever your family looks like, join us this November as we find our place in the family of God.

Advent is the season when the church dares to hope again. Week after week, we recall God’s promises—of peace, justice, joy, and presence—and learn to wait, not with fear, but with trust. The God who made promises has not forgotten us. In Christ, the promises are fulfilled.
