This Sunday we begin a new series of messages exploring how Jesus turned the "orthodoxy" of religious tradition on its head. We begin with Jesus healing the paralytic on the Sabbath in John 5:1-18.
This Sunday, the Pathfinders Class begins a new study of
The Scandalous Gospel of Jesus by Peter J. Gomes. Join us and be challenged as we revisit the Gospel of Jesus to consider how its call to action is interpreted in our lives today. All are invited to join the class at 9:30 AM in Room 2008.

Caught Caring
Charles Clark
Charles Clark, who was featured in People Magazine as an inspiration to teens, spoke to the kids at VAST last week. Mr. Clark is a janitor at Trinity High School and often does motivational speaking to youth. He said many memorable things to encourage the children, but a few really stuck out... “Money doesn’t make you successful. What you do for others makes you successful.” And “Don’t let others tell you who you are or what you are.” Charles has changed countless lives at Trinity High School.
