Flowing Rivers International Church

What a powerful way to begin Friends & Family Month at FRI!

This Sunday was especially meaningful as our kids and teens took an active role in service. For many of our young people, it was their first time worshipping, dancing, praying, and boldly declaring their love for God in front of others. What a blessing it was to watch the next generation step forward without shame and experience God for themselves!
God moved mightily through every part of the service, and Pastor Omar brought a timely word titled “Which Key Will You Choose?”

Every key gives you access to something, but not every door is worth opening.
As we begin our August theme, UNLOCKED, we were challenged to think about the choices we make, the doors those choices open, and whether the keys we’re carrying are actually leading us where God wants us to go.

And what a perfect continuation of the week our young people experienced at VBS! During Kingdom Quest, they spent the week discovering what it means to seek God and gain access to His Kingdom. Now we’re praying that what was planted in them this week continues to grow long after VBS is over.

This is only the beginning of Friends & Family Month. We can’t wait to see what God continues to UNLOCK in our children, our teens, our families, and our entire church!
And if you want to hear the answer to the question, “Which Key Will You Choose?” stay connected to our YouTube channel for the full message.

This Sunday, Pastor Omar brought a powerful message titled “Don’t Fold: Stand Your Ground.”

Life has a way of applying pressure. Challenges come, battles arise, and moments of uncertainty can make us question whether we have what it takes to keep standing.

But God never called His people to give in.

He has already equipped us with everything we need to stand firm when the pressure comes. The question isn’t whether the battle will happen—it’s whether we’ll remember who we are when it does.

If you’ve been feeling weary, discouraged, or ready to give up, this message is one you don’t want to miss.

The full sermon premieres on our YouTube channel tonight! Be sure to watch, share it with someone who needs encouragement, and let this Word strengthen your faith.

Next Sunday kicks off our Friends & Family Month! Throughout August we’ll have exciting services and fun events for the entire family. Be sure to visit the link in our bio to RSVP for all of this month’s events—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
