Weekly Update - August 14, 2025

Last Week’s Message!

This past Sunday, Elder Josh Conover gave a compelling conclusion to our series on the Ten Commandments, by reminding us of the true purpose of God's law as well as by pointing us to God's invitation away from coveting and into abundance of life in Him. Join us this Sunday, as Pastor Ryan Walker kicks off our fall sermon series on The Gospel of John! (John 1:1-5)


Straight Street Tomorrow - Friday, August 15th!

Tomorrow evening our church will be serving alongside Straight Street, a ministry that focuses on showing the love of Jesus to the unhoused community of Downtown Orlando, by providing a warm meal daily at 530PM! If you are interested in volunteering, reach out to our ministry coordinator Debbie Barron to learn more about serving here!


New Series: The Gospel of John! Sunday, August 17th!

This fall, we’re diving deep into one of the most profound and personal accounts of Jesus' life by studying the Gospel of John. Join us for our new sermon series titled "Light Revealed," beginning on Sunday, August 17th! We will explore the unique way the apostle John reveals Christ’s identity, His miracles and ultimately, His invitation for all of us to believe and follow Him.

Whether you’ve read John’s Gospel many times or are opening it for the first time, this series is designed to help you encounter Jesus in a fresh and life-giving way. You won’t want to miss a single week!


Refuge Women’s Gathering - Monday, August 18th!

Every 3rd Monday of each month we have our Refuge Women's Gathering! This is a great opportunity for the women of our church to come together for a time of fellowship and bible study! The next meeting will be on Monday, August 18th and will be hosted by Linda Reavis @ 2700 Willowgate Ave Orlando, FL 32822 starting at 7PM! (Make sure to bring your ID to show at the gate!) You won’t want to miss out!
