Here is a prayer for today, reflecting on the truth of Psalm 50.

This past Sunday we commissioned our friends and today, they moved to England! In the last 7 years, the Bixlers have blessed our church in countless ways—the way they give, serve and host has been an example to us all. Now, we send them off and into good hands with our friends and partners in the gospel at Peak Trinity Church. Gospel goodbyes are the hardest, but the best. God always proves himself faithful, and this time is no different. We love you, Bixlers!

With joy and anticipation of what the Lord will do, we’re excited to announce that Dave Becker will join our pastoral team this summer as a Pastor of Teaching and Leadership. Our pastors and many members have prayed for more than 3 years for the right fit to help support our current pastoral team, deacons, leaders, and membership. We prayed for someone with leadership experience who could help organize our ministry in a way that effectively guides the saints into mission and making Jesus known. We prayed for a man of character and gentleness, with an evangelistic heart for the nations. We prayed for a pastor who could assist in teaching and theological equipping, and a pastor who can shepherd in pastoral care and counseling. We believe God has brought Dave to help fill this need as an answer to prayer, and we could not be more overjoyed to welcome him and his family!

Join us as we enter into the season of Lent together by coming to the Ash Wednesday service. Lent is a time of repentance, fasting, and prayer in preparation for the great feast of the resurrection. Our Ash Wednesday service will be tomorrow from 6:30-7:15.

Today we got to rejoice through worship together, baptize three people into our body, affirm new members, commission two new deacons, and enjoy a meal together. All common, but extravagant grace.
