Fam!
I hope this message finds you well and full of the peace that only God can give. As we approach the final stretch before the new school year kicks off, I wanted to take a moment to share a quick note from my heart.
This summer has been filled with so many signs of God’s faithfulness. From the joy of fellowship, to answered prayers, incredible camp experiences for Kids and Students, powerful baptisms and stories of salvation, spiritual growth, and new connections, we’ve seen His hand guiding and blessing The River. I’m deeply grateful for what the Lord has done in and through us this summer so far.
With that in mind, we’ll be taking a short break on Wednesdays before the busyness of the new schedules and fall soon begins. This little pause is a time for rest, reflection, and renewal—a time to listen closely to the Lord and prepare for what’s ahead.
Advance.
That’s our word for the year, and The River is set to advance in really cool ways! As we prepare for a busy August, we’re getting super excited about Men’s, Women’s Kids, and Students Ministries. Dustin C has some big plans to share with men August 9, Caitlyn has some cool changes in store for Kids, and MORE! We’ll tell you more about the fall schedule in the next few weeks.
May you continue to experience His goodness, grace, and refreshing in these final summer days. Let’s keep praying for one another and looking ahead with great expectation.
Love you, and beyond grateful to serve your family as pastor.
Pastor Brent
