YOUTH MINISTRY UPDATE

Church Family,

What an incredible weekend we had at Sunday in the Park! It was such a joy to see so many of you come out to fellowship and spend time together as one family in Christ. Thank you to everyone who helped, attended, or invited a friend—your presence and participation made the day a wonderful expression of our church’s heart for community.

Looking ahead, we’re already preparing for Hot Hearts, coming up in January. This powerful weekend event brings students together from across the region for worship, teaching, and spiritual renewal. It’s a great opportunity for our youth to grow in their faith and be encouraged by seeing how God is moving among their generation. More details will be shared soon, but now is the perfect time to start praying for this life-changing event.

As we look back on Sunday in the Park and ahead to what’s next, I’m reminded of Pastor Keith’s charge from 1 Peter 2:4–11, calling us to be the church. We are living stones, being built together into a spiritual house. That means church isn’t confined to the building or the schedule—it’s who we are, every day, wherever we go. When we serve, encourage, and love others, we show the world what it means to belong to Christ.

Thank you, church family, for continuing to live out your faith so faithfully. Let’s keep being the church God has called us to be!
In Christ,
Cody Dowden
