Day of Prayer and Fasting for Our Academy

Day of Prayer and Fasting for Our Academy, June 1, 9:00am-4:00pm, Hillcrest Worship Center

We need more staff so we can get families off the waiting list and enrolled. On June 1, let's join together in prayer and fasting for the next step in the growth of our academy. Here's what you can do: (1) Join us for worship at 10am on Sunday, May 31, for a lesson from Pastor Tom about the spiritual discipline of fasting. (2) Plan to fast from daytime meals on Monday, June 1, use that time for prayer, and break your fast at supper with praise and thanksgiving. (3) Come and go from the auditorium any time 9am - 4pm on Monday, June 1. We'll have instrumental music playing quietly, and a prayer guide for you.

Prayer from our Pastor Tom Goodman:
Lord, we remember with gratitude those who gave their lives in service to our nation. Comfort the families who still carry the cost of that sacrifice and let them know they are not forgotten. Make us worthy of the freedoms we have received by teaching us to live with humility, courage, and peace. May our remembrance move us not only to honor the fallen, but to seek a world where fewer families must bear such sorrow. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Kairos Prison Ministry - Thank You!

Kairos Prison Ministry - Thank You!

In April Pastor Tom and Jim Steed participated in the Kairos Weekend
From one of the Kairos Weekend Leaders:
"
God showed up. He showed up in the conversations, in the quiet moments, in the laughter, in the tears, and in the breakthroughs we were blessed to witness. And He showed up through each one of us. I kept thinking throughout the weekend, 'Just imagine what one moment of genuine love and presence can do in a place like this.' And we saw it happen over and over again. Some seeds were planted. Some hearts were softened. Some lives may have been completely changed. The good news is…none of it was wasted. And maybe most importantly…thank you for being open yourselves. Because if we’re honest, God was working on all of us too."
