Rev. Haven Boyd, Children's Minister, celebrated our VBS Children on Sunday, June 14.

In this sermon, Pastor Haven reflects on the story of Peter and John healing a man at the temple gate, drawing a powerful connection between physical healing and the deeper healing of belonging and inclusion. The man, who had been unable to walk since birth, was carried daily to the temple gates by his community but never brought inside. He was helped within the limits of social and religious norms, yet he remained an outsider. Peter and John responded not just by restoring his ability to walk, but by welcoming him fully into the community of faith.
