As our "Rise Up" series around our 2027 Annual Giving Campaign comes to its final week this Dedication Sunday, we’ll dedicate 2027 to God’s care and vision and to all the ministry our pledges make possible. Together, we’ll pause to pray over the year ahead and over every pledge, whether it came by card, by mail, or by click. (There’s still time to get your pledge in before Sunday - click here to participate.)

The sermon series, which has explored different call stories in the Bible, ends with the moment Jesus rose up to the heavens in what’s known as The Ascension, as his disciples stood frozen, staring at the sky. How might Jesus’ ascension impact our “rising up” to the call that God has for our lives and for our church?
