LENTEN DEVOTION FROM OUR PASTORS:
As we journey through Lent, we invite you to join us for a special devotion led by our pastors. This video will offer a time for reflection, prayer, and spiritual growth. In this week’s devotion, we’ll explore the scripture reading from Genesis 12:1-4a and the Gospel of John 3:1-17, diving deeper into God's calling and the gift of eternal life.
We hope you find this time of reflection meaningful, and we look forward to gathering together with you this Sunday.
This week’s readings:
Genesis 12:1-4a
John 3:1-17
