Better Together: We’ve Got a Future

Nov 26, 2023    Dr. Harold Henderson

What a ride 2023 has been! We’ve experienced incredible highs like the world premiere of the “Requiem” this Spring which is a beautiful piece of music our congregation commissioned to honor the lives lost during the pandemic and claim hope and light for the future. We’ve also faced challenging lows like UMCs in our community and beyond who’ve chosen to disaffiliate from our denomination, a situation which has brought hurt and heartache to many. Today it’s both these realities that inspire this year’s stewardship theme, “Better Together.” God has done, is doing and will do great things through our commitment to our connection in Christ… in short, we are better together!


Verses 6 and 7 of Colossians 2 says “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.”
