We discuss how our congregation will explore, during this year, how we will contribute our time and talents to mission organizations globally, nationally, locally, and in our immediate vicinity.

When Jesus was baptized and stepped out of the Jordan River, it was like Cesar crossing the Rubicon, a point of no return, as he began his mission and proclaimed the coming of the Kingdom of God.

This week the Moore family joins us to share their experiences as missionaries in Taiwan and let us know how we can support missions through praying, giving, and going.

This sermon encourages us to reflect on the significance of water in our lives and to remember our baptism as a source of hope and identity amidst chaos. We are invited to see every encounter with water as a reminder of God's presence and promises.

This sermon intertwines the themes of Christmas, gift-giving, and the presence of Jesus, encouraging us to reflect on the deeper meanings behind these traditions. God's love is ever-present and accessible, especially during the Christmas season.

This week we explore Jesus' role as King. Unlike earthly kings, Jesus doesn't seek to exploit us for his own gain, but to seek relationship.

This week we explore Jesus' role as Priest, as he intercedes for His people.

This week we explore Jesus' role as Prophet, where He speaks on behalf of God, calls us to repentance, reveals God through His teaching, and offers hope for the future.

As God's family, the Church is called to three holy actions:
1. Baptism - God claims His people.
2. The Lord's Supper - God sustains His people.
3. Foot washing - God sends His people into service.

This week we dive into the Parable of the Good Samaritan to explore the question, "Who is my Neighbor?" Jesus challenges us to see the person God has put in our way. This is our Neighbor. We are called to be the Samaritan to this person, to do the messy, inconvenient work to meet their needs.
