Good Morning, Ministry Partner!

Be Encouraged by God's Word
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the parent loves the child. By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. For the love of God is this, that we obey his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome, for whatever is born of God conquers the world. And this is the victory that conquers the world, our faith. Who is it that conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God

— 1 John 5:1-5, NRSV

Pray Together with Us

Grant, most gracious God, that we may love and seek you always and everywhere, above all things and for your sake, in this present life, and at last find you and forever hold you fast in the life to come. Grant this for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord.
