This Sunday

Last week we had an amazing worship journey "through the sanctuary" that ultimately took us where we all want to be: in the presence of God.

This week we'll look specifically at singing and corporate worship. There are LOTS of ways to worship besides singing together (more on that next week), but there is something about singing together. What is it? Why is singing our worship so special? What's the big deal about singing together? Plus, with all our different church traditions and preferences - how should we navigate the diversity of music genres, and worship styles? Let's talk about worship - and let's DO IT together - this week at Home Church!

Baptism Sunday!

Our next Baptism Sunday will be this Sunday, August 9th! If you're ready to take this next step in your faith, or if you have questions about baptisms, please contact Dahlia and she'll be happy to get connected with one of our pastors!

Why should Christians vote?

We pray everyday for God's kingdom to fully come. For Jesus to return, and for the glory of God's spirit - his presence - to cover the whole earth "as the waters cover the seas". But, as the body of Christ, we are not passive. We are not just sitting and waiting.

We are called to continue Jesus' work, by the power of his spirit. That work is announcing and initiating the coming of his kingdom. We do that largely by sharing "samples" of His Kingdom (like love, peace, joy, healing, justice, peace and freedom) with the world around us.

One way we can share those samples is by being active in our government, especially by voting. Every Christian should look at the bible, and the life of Jesus; and listen to His spirit in them - and vote for the party, candidate or initiative that they feel best reflects the character of God, and the values of his kingdom.

If you are not registered to vote - we will have a table for voter registration on the front porch with people that will help you through the process of making sure you're registered.

Spanish Group

Did you know that Home Church has a Spanish-speaking Group? This weekly gathering is a place for people to grow in their faith, build meaningful relationships, and worship together in Spanish!

If you know someone that speaks Spanish & is looking for a place to belong — please share this with them!

Delight & Deliver

October 9-11 at Mo Ranch

Retreat to the beauty of the Texas Hill Country for a weekend where the pace is slower, the schedule is lighter, and the invitation is simple: enjoy God.

Together we'll experience meaningful worship, biblical teaching, great food, fresh air, refreshing conversations, fun activities, plenty of laughter, and space to simply rest. There won't be a packed schedule or pressure to have it all together—just an opportunity to step away from the demands of everyday life and rediscover the joy, freedom, and wonder found in God's presence.

Bring your walking shoes, your favorite sweatshirt, and a heart ready to receive.

Registrations will be closing soon! Don't wait!

Back to School Picnic

The new school year is right around the corner—which means getting back into routines, setting those alarm clocks, and going to bed on time!

Before the busy schedules begin, join us for our Back to School Picnic on August 23rd, following the 11am service as we celebrate the start of a new school year together. Bring the whole family for a fun afternoon of food, fellowship, and connection as we encourage our students, teachers, and school staff for the year ahead!
