BUILDING TRUST IN GOD:  SMALL STEPS, BIG PEACE

Trusting God isn’t always easy—especially when the world around us echos fears, doubts, worries, or negativity. These simple steps can help steady your heart and surround you with encouragement:

Pray Honestly: Share your fears, hopes, and questions with God. He welcomes your full heart—no filters, no judgment.

Soak in Scripture: Verses like Isaiah 41:10 (“Do not fear, for I am with you…”) and Philippians 4:6–7 (“Do not be anxious about anything…”) offer peace and assurance when worries rise.

Remember God’s Faithfulness: Reflect on past seasons when He guided, healed, and sustained you. Let those memories fuel your trust today.

Choose Uplifting Company: Surround yourself with those who speak life—people who pray with you, laugh with you, and point you back to God. Walk kindly past gossip and discouragement; your spirit thrives where grace is spoken.

Step Into Service: Be the Hands and Feet of Jesus
Serving others shifts our focus from fear to purpose. Each act of kindness—offering comfort, lending a hand, showing up—echoes Jesus’ love. As we serve, we reflect His grace and become vessels of peace, reminding others they are seen and valued.


Back to School Bash * Saturday, July 26
11:00am to 1:00pm

Let’s come together to be the hands and feet of Jesus for families preparing for a new school year. Join us for lawn games, fun activities, and free giveaways as we bless our community with joy, encouragement, and tangible support.

🙏 We need volunteers!
Please sign up or contact the church office. Every helping hand makes a difference — whether you’re setting up, welcoming guests, sharing smiles, cleaning up, or simply doing what needs to be done.

Let’s show the love of Christ to those in need and make this a season of hope and excitement for every child and family who walks through our doors.
