Last Week's Message

What Can God Do With What You Have?
This week, visiting speaker Ken Grenfell spoke about what can happen when we offer God what we have—even when it doesn’t feel like enough. Looking at Jesus feeding the five thousand, Ken encouraged us to notice the needs around us, make ourselves available, and trust God to work through us. He also shared how the way we respond to pain can shape us, and why it matters to stay humble and keep pointing people to Jesus.
Giving
Your generosity makes our work in this city possible. We’re so grateful for you.
This week we're also taking a special offering to support The Rock Church in Terrace, BC, as they work through a building lease shortfall.
