Recognizing God Moments
On Sunday, we’ll mark the beginning of Jesus’ final week by studying the story of his “triumphal entry” into Jerusalem. Our children will help us welcome Jesus with palms and celebration, after which Pastor Jeff will challenge us to draw some practical lessons about how we can better recognize “God moments” in our own lives.

A Tear in the Cosmic Tapestry
