It’s been said that no one likes change except babies in wet diapers. I’m not even sure that’s true—babies often cry quite a bit during the diaper-changing experience! But what is true is that some changes are welcome. A new job, a new car, or a new friendship can bring joy, excitement, and opportunity. These are the kinds of changes …

Sisters and Brothers, can you believe it’s been nearly seven weeks?! I was asked recently if it was my third or fourth Sunday… it was my sixth. Loving it!!

Hey Friends! That was a GREAT start to the school year. One hundred and twenty-four (124) children participated in our back-pack blessing! Wow! I want to thank Beth and Meg for their leadership and the 30 servants of Christ serving in Kids Ministry this past weekend. Way to go! Things like this don’t just happen. It takes a consistent level …
