Newsletter January 23, 2026

Dear Church Family and Friends,

I pray that your New Year is off to a good start and that you are growing in the Lord. This past week, we started FOUNDATIONS back up, and it was a wonderful time for us to be together mid-week and be discipled. 

As many of you know, the weather is looking tricky this weekend. I was not looking at the forecast when I preached last week that "we have no control over the weather!" The Roots retreat for the students has already been postponed to April due to unknown driving conditions with the weather. As of now, the Session has decided that we will have our normal operating schedule this Sunday morning. However, please stay tuned to the church website and other church-wide communications for updates in case we need to make adjustments due to weather conditions. 

Additionally, let's all be in prayer for neighboring states and counties that may be more affected by this winter storm. 

Check out our brand new "Welcome New Members" board that is located in the first floor hallway. This is a great way to learn new faces. We have another new members class starting on Sunday, February 1. 

See you Sunday! 

by His grace and to His praise,

Pastor Wilson
