CURRENT SERIES - PRESCHOOL

Jesus is the greatest example of what it looks like to love others. Through the way He lived His life, Jesus taught us how to love one another. And when we follow Jesus, God's Spirit helps us to live like Jesus - transforming not only us but the world around us.

We are going outside for our Summer On The Mount! After you sign in, come join us on the field! Throughout the summer months, we will be reading through Matthew 5-7 as we explore Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. From the arrival of God's Kingdom, to God's presence and blessing being available to everyone, to guidelines on how to live like Jesus - we'll be talking all things about arguably the greatest sermon ever spoken!
