Mid-Week Update 02/19/26

Don't Forget to bring your paper Bibles and a pen on Sunday, as we won't be using screens for the next 4 weeks.

Wednesday night was a sweet time of prayer as we opened God's word and sought his face together. I hope you all can join us for the Prayer Summit, where we will take an extended time to pray. Paul Meldrum will be joining us again this year. This will be a time to remove ourselves from the daily routines of life to seek God's face. We don't want anyone to be hindered from coming to the prayer summit. If you are unable to cover the admission fee, don't hesitate to get in touch with your small group leader for the discount code to waive the admission fee. You can sign up for the prayer summit here.
I am also encouraged to hear how God is already meeting folks in our church through the digital fast. One family, rather than the kids revolting from no devices, they have experience time with one another and time in God's creation. Several have shared they didn't realize how much they touched their phone each day. Remember, the goal for this week is to Detach

DETACH

• Detach from distractions to connect with the Father, to approach Him and seek His face.
• Detach from doing to find real rest in him and honor God through rest.
• Detach from resentment and discouragement to experience gratitude for his goodness, along with knowing more joy, peace, and hope.

In the workbook, you will be reading about Sabbath rest. Though we could preach an entire series on Sabbath Rest, I came across some articles recently that I found concise and encouraging on the subject of Sabbath rest. I thought I would pass along.

• 10 Key Bible Verses on Sabbath
• What Is the Sabbath?

I look forward to seeing you all on Sunday!!!
In Christ,
