“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, I am there among them.”
Matthew 18:20, CSB
We are saved in Christ alone, and we come together to call out sin to lead each other to repentance in the power of the Holy Spirit and with the direction of His Word.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
John 13:34, ESV
God has given us peace through Christ by revealing His love through the cross, and now we carry that peace by loving His Church with the same sacrificial love He showed us.
Our church sent one of our pastors to a small struggling church four years ago this month. What started as a church with 3-10 weekly attenders in an area with many ex-cons and struggling individuals, a food bank that fed a few dozen each week, has now become a church with several dozen weekly attenders feeding several dozen more at the food bank.
But Pastor Paul is beginning to feel his own years creeping up on him. This small country church needs a new shepherd, so our prayer has shifted slightly.
Let us lift up all such churches and those with other issues that need resolving.
