NEW SERIES ALERT JOY: RESILIENT DELIGHT IN WEARY DAYS The 1940 portrait painting of Jesus by American artist Warner Sallman, called The Head of Christ,has been reproduced more than half a billion times. Yes, billion with a b. In this painting, Jesus is looking quiteserious. There’s not even a hint of a smile. This is often how many think of Jesusdour and glum. Yet Jesus’ own teachings tell us that joy is the mark of someone who follows Him and knows God the Father. Ironic, huh? In this series, we’ll examine joy. Why does joy seem so elusive these days? What steals our joy? Is it possible to have joy in the midst of life’s difficult seasons? And in the process, we hope and pray, we’ll not only learn about joy, we’ll begin to live with joy.

GREAT IDEAS, REAL CONVERSATIONS, FANTASTIC FOOD Over the past year we have all accidentally picked up a few bad habits and we are all pretty exhausted. Wouldn't it be great if we could re-center our lives on what matters most, being together, eating together, focusing on God, and focusing on what God wants to do in us and through us. Nationally recognized church leaders Joshua Ryan Butler and Nancy Ortberg will share wisdom about steps we can all take to be formed in the way... of Jesus in this season. We will have facilitated conversations around tables to process and debrief together. We will share meals, laugh and connect. And best believe there are going to be games and fun!

We will not be having Online Services streaming this weekend. ... 3. We would love to ask you to pray with us for all the people and projects involved in Beautiful Day, and that through all the work being done, Jesus would be glorified!

Take Action: As a collective voice for the business and faith communities, we are urging you to join our letter-writing campaign to encourage lawmakers and government officials to safely re-open the economy: allow indoor gatherings for places of worship (at 25% capacity); indoor dining (at 25% capacity); and to allow certain personal care services (such as estheticians) to safely reopen. These businesses and places of worship that could safely reopen and welcome back their customers/followers are not being allowed to do so despite following safety guidelines from local, state, and the federal government. Visit https://app.muster.com/take-action/bdUTIkOsI5/ for more info and to sign the petition . Thank you for your support and your prayers.
