Here's a little bit about our theme from 2025:
​
​Throughout scripture, the theme of ​​"rising" appears again and again. Rise, shine! The healing of the paralyzed man at Capernum. Lazarus. Jairus' daughter. The widow's son at Nain. The foundation of our faith—Jesus' death and resurrection.
When Jesus met someone and instructed them to rise up, it didn't stop there. They were met with a healing, loving savior, and then they did something.
The work we do as worship leaders, pastors, volunteers, or simply as followers of Christ requires the power we receive from Jesus. Apart from Him, we can do nothing. But through Him, we are empowered, and then we do something. We rise up. ​
