State of the Church, 2024

 • Series: Standalone Sermons

This Sunday, Church of the Messiah will gather for a special "State of the Church" Sunday. This time of reflection highlights the incredible mission and ministry work that has taken place throughout 2024—a year of growth, generosity, and transformation, where the call to be the hands and feet of Jesus has been lived out in powerful ways. The sermon will celebrate the many ways the gospel has been proclaimed and God’s love shared. From nurturing children to packing meals, digging wells to sharing soul-stirring music, and extending compassion through countless acts of kindness, Messiah’s impact has reached far and wide. Behind every number and story is a person, a family, or a community touched by the love and hope shared through this ministry. During the service, the 2024 Impact Report will be shared. This report captures the extraordinary work God has accomplished through the congregation over the past year and serves as a reminder of the lives transformed by this ministry. It stands as a celebration of God’s activity and faithfulness. In addition to reflecting on 2024, the service will look ahead to a fruitful 2025. Together, the congregation will dream boldly, give generously, and serve faithfully in the year to come.
