Rev. Zack L. Dunlap preaching
All Saints' Day: Ancestral Faith, 2 Timothy 1:1-5
Individually and collectively, we come in a line. None of us emerged out of nowhere. Someone birthed you, someone raised you, someone brought you to this church. On this All Saints’ Sunday, we will honor the faithful saints who have gone before us and find strength and sustenance to continue their legacy of faith, hope, and love in the time and place where God has planted us.

November 9
Rev. Rachael M. Dunlap preaching
Walking in Faith, Matthew 11:25-30
What aspects of your life do you need God to fill? Take confidence in the knowledge that Christ’s Spirit dwells within your heart. Jesus teaches that his yoke is easy, and his burden is light. Be encouraged by Rev. Rachael Dunlap, as she guides us to walk in faith and be strengthened.

November 16
Rev. Dr. Charles Boayue, Jr. preaching
Standing Firm, Luke 21: 5-19 (NIV)
Dr. Boayue will elaborate on the main message of Luke 21:5-19: that followers of Jesus Christ must remain steadfast and faithful through future tribulations, including the destruction of the temple, wars, and persecution, because God will provide the necessary wisdom and grant them ultimate victory. The passage encourages believers to not be deceived by false claims, to see challenging times as opportunities for testimony, and to find hope in the knowledge that God is with them and will provide for them, even when things seem bleak.

November 23: (Confirmation at 11)
Rev. Dr. Charles Boayue, Jr. preaching
Self-Serving Religion, Luke 23: 33-43 (NIV)
Dr. Boayue will emphasize that Jesus offers forgiveness, love, and salvation to all who repent, even in the face of Christ’s own suffering and death. He will highlight Jesus's grace through the story of two criminals crucified with him: one who mocks him, and the other who recognizes his sin and is promised, "Today you will be with me in paradise". This passage demonstrates Christ's suffering love, his complete reliance on God's will, and the transformative power of faith and repentance.

November 30: Advent Week 1
HOPE, Matthew 24:36-44
Rev. Rachael M. Dunlap preaching
Advent is all about anticipation and preparation for the coming of Christ Jesus. It is a season of waiting, as we quietly reflect on all the blessings before us. Expectation and we prayerfully focus on the light that Christ brought into this world with His first coming, and hope as we hold to the promise of His eventual return. Join Rev. Rachael Dunlap as she begins our Advent Season with Hope.
