about the series
Our current series, Signposts: Illuminating the Path to the Messiah, we are exploring the powerful Old Testament prophecies that point toward the coming of Christ. Each week, we’ll dive into a significant prophecy and see how it finds fulfillment in the New Testament, offering context and deepening our spiritual reflection on this season of anticipation. Join us as we uncover God’s promises that guided His people toward the arrival of the Messiah and what they mean for us today. Services are at 8am and 10am, and we look forward to journeying through this series together as we prepare our hearts for Christmas.
