A Note From OUR Pastor
Bruce G. Chesser
I trust that you are having a great Labor Day weekend. We may have several more weeks of summer-like weather, but the turning of the calendar to September does bring the promise of cooler days ahead. I don’t know about you, but I am looking forward to it.
This morning, we will study Matthew 8:5-13 as we consider the faith of a man who asked Jesus to heal one of his servants. We see a great example of faith and humility in this passage. I pray that the Lord will use it to encourage you.
October 18th will be our annual church picnic. Make sure to put this on your calendar! There will be rides for the kids, food, music, fellowship, and fun all right here on campus. Don’t miss it.
Thank you for being here today. Happy Labor Day!
Bruce Chesser
Sunday Connect
From Senior Associate Pastor, Bruce RaleY
Our church fiscal year is October 1st through September 30th. That means the present year is quickly drawing to a close. It has been an incredible year in so many different ways. We will celebrate those blessings in the days ahead. It also means a new fiscal year is just before us.
Our ministry team and Stewardship Committee have been working on the 2026-27 church budget for several months. Copies of the proposed budget will be available next Sunday at the Welcome Desk in the Worship Center lobby. The proposed budget will be discussed Wednesday evening, September 16, at 6:30 pm in the Worship Center.
In addition, Pastor Chesser and I will present two new mission partnership opportunities that evening. One is a revitalization partnership that will look much like the one we have with Crossroads Westmoreland. The other is a church plant partnership here in Tennessee. We are excited to share about both of these opportunities.
It is a joy to serve you.
