Happy Thanksgiving! I love this week and how the entire world moves towards the biblical posture of gratitude and thanksgiving. Being thankful requires intentionality, so this week it’s critical for us to pause, reflect and remember all the things we have to be thankful for and recalibrate our hearts around what matters most and why. Thanksgiving gives us the rest, perspective and peace we desperately need in our lives. Be sure and make time to write down what you are thankful for, and more importantly, express your gratitude to those around you.

I’m looking forward to seeing you at our Thanksgiving Eve service tonight! This is one of my favorite services where collectively we express our gratitude and thanks. It’s also a great opportunity for those of you looking to find thanksgiving to be encouraged by your own church family. Then, enjoy the next couple of days with your friends and loved ones, (trying not to be consumed by the Black Friday consumers:)! Be sure to invite your friends and family to join us this weekend as we aim our hearts at the love, grace and power of God together. Bianca Olthoff will be back with us inspiring and challenging us from God’s Word, and there is still the opportunity for you to turn in your Beyond pledges as we create a new front door to love and serve our community!

Looking forward to being with you all and celebrating Thanksgiving together!

Peace,

Kyle
