November 8 Worship
"Keep the Flame Burning"

How do we nurture a faith that remains strong, even when life takes unexpected turns?

This Sunday, we continue our fall sermon series, *Becoming the Beloved Community*,
with Pastor Pete's message, “Keep the Flame Burning,” based on Matthew 25:1–13.

Through the parable of the ten bridesmaids, Jesus reminds us that faithful discipleship is not something
we can put off until tomorrow. Spiritual readiness is cultivated one day at a time through prayer, love,
service, and a growing relationship with God. We are called not to live in fear of Christ's return,
but to live faithfully today, keeping the flame of faith burning brightly.

Join us Sunday, November 8:

8:45 a.m. - Modern-style worship in the Family Life Center
11:00 a.m. - Traditional-style worship in the Sanctuary

Come as you are, and join us as we continue learning what it means to become
the beloved community Christ calls us to be!
