Sunday, we began our Love Above All series with a simple but powerful reminder from 1 Peter 4:8

“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.”

From Adam and Eve trying to cover themselves with fig leaves to Jesus being stripped at the cross, we're reminded that Scripture tells the story of a God who meets us in our sin and shame and covers us with grace.

We tried to cover ourselves with fig leaves. God covered us with Christ.

Because His grace has covered us, we are called to extend that same grace to others.

As we continue to show the love of Jesus to everyone, everywhere, every day, I want to remind our members about the important membership vote before us regarding the proposed borrowing of up to $550,000 for our needed roof replacement and sanctuary lighting and video upgrades.

This is an important decision in our church's life, and I ask each of us to prayerfully consider it. This is more than a financial decision. It is a stewardship decision about caring for the place God has entrusted to us and preparing it to continue serving people and ministry in the years ahead.

Please pray for wisdom, unity, and clarity as we make this decision together.

And as we go through this week, remember: Everyone. Everywhere. Every Day.

Whoever God puts in front of you, wherever God sends you, may we choose to Love Above All.

See you Sunday!
