Why We Sing!


Hey Reader,

Tomorrow is going to be special and I can't wait to worship with you at our outdoor Worship on the Lawn service! We're continuing The Road to Promise series through Exodus with a message called "A Song Worth Singing" from Exodus 15:1-18.

After God miraculously delivered the Israelites through the Red Sea, Moses and the people responded the only way they knew how, which was with a song of praise! But their worship wasn't simply about what God had done in that moment. It was about who God is, what He had promised, and the incredible story of redemption He was unfolding. And today, we have an even greater reason to sing!

From the deliverance of Israel to the death and resurrection of Jesus, Scripture tells one incredible story of a God who rescues, redeems, and restores His people. We don't worship because everything in life is going right. We worship because God has already done what we could never do for ourselves through Jesus Christ!

That's why I want you to be with us this Sunday! We're taking worship outside, and it's the perfect opportunity to invite someone who may not normally attend church. Bring your family, invite your friends, coworkers, and neighbors, and come ready to lift your voice in praise to our great God! And with our Harvest Fest festivities, it's going to be an incredible day of worship, fellowship, and fun for the entire family.

We've got a story worth telling, a Savior worth celebrating, and a song worth singing. See you tomorrow at 10:00AM!

Blessings,

Pastor Eric

Special Events: Worship on the Lawn + Harvest Fest

TOMORROW IS THE DAY! 🎉🎡

The countdown is almost over, and in less than 24 hours, we'll be gathering for one of the most exciting Sundays of the year: Harvest Fest 2026!

We've been preparing, praying, and planning for this incredible day, and now all that's missing is you and the people you're bringing with you!

Tomorrow is about more than carnival rides, games, great food, and giveaways. It's about creating an environment where families can connect, our community can come together, and people can experience the love of Jesus Christ. We can't wait to welcome everyone!

☀️ HERE'S EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW FOR TOMORROW!

📅 Sunday, October 18, 2026

⏰ 10:00AM — Worship on the Lawn

We'll begin our day worshiping God together outdoors with uplifting music, an encouraging message from God's Word, and a wonderful time of fellowship. This will be a family worship experience, so bring the whole crew!

🎡 12:00PM - 2:00PM — Carnival

Immediately following worship, the celebration continues with:

  • 🎠 Carnival rides and games
  • 🏰 Bounce houses
  • 🎨 Face painting
  • 🍧 FREE snow cones
  • 🎶 Live DJ and great music
  • 🧸 Stuffed animal making
  • 🎁 Raffles, prizes, and giveaways
  • 🍔 Delicious food available for purchase

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:

✅ Come ready for outdoor worship! Chairs will be provided, but you're welcome to bring your own comfortable lawn chair.

✅ Dress comfortably! We'll be outdoors for worship and enjoying plenty of carnival activities afterward.

✅ Bring the whole family! This is a family-friendly celebration with something for every generation.

✅ Bring a friend! There's still time to invite someone who needs a little encouragement, community, or simply a fun afternoon with their family.

We've talked all week about inviting others, but now it's time to put those invitations into action! Think about that one person or family God has placed on your heart. Don't assume they're busy. Don't assume they won't come. Just INVITE THEM! A simple invitation to a day of fun could become an introduction to a church family, a meaningful encounter with God's Word, and the beginning of a transformed life. That's why we do what we do!

Tomorrow, let's show our community what Bold Faith, Unconditional Love, and Servant Leadership look like in action!


Women's Bible Study: Ephesians

A Study of Faith and Practice!

Join us for the last women's Bible study of the Fall semester as we journey through the book of Ephesians and discover the incredible riches of God's grace, our identity in Christ, and how to live out our faith with confidence and purpose.

Together we'll grow deeper in God's Word, build authentic friendships, and encourage one another as we pursue Jesus. Whether you're new to Bible study or have been studying Scripture for years, this study is for you.

On the weeks we don't meet, we encourage everyone to gather with their Cluster or small group of women to discuss the homework, pray together, and share what God is teaching them.

📆 Next Meeting is Wednesday, October 28th (this is our last one before The Table)

⏰ 7:00 - 8:30PM

📍Navo Middle School located at 1701 Navo Rd, Aubrey, TX 76227

Women's Event: The Table

A Beautiful Afternoon of Connection, Encouragement, and Celebration!

All women ages 13 & up are invited to come together to refresh their spirits and deepen their faith. This isn’t just another event—it’s a moment to pause, reflect, and be truly seen and loved by your sisters in Christ. We’ll share inspiring discussions, complete the final session of our Ephesians study, and enjoy delicious food.

Experience a Foot Washing Ceremony led by our very own, Lady A, that will be a cherished memory in the life of our church. This intimate and powerful moment of humility and blessing is designed to refresh your soul and strengthen your walk with Christ.

Whether you’re new to Harvest Ministries or a long-time sister, The Table is your place to gather, grow, and be empowered.

Harvest Ministries October 24, 2026 We Need a Fresh Wind Hey Reader, I've been praying about this Sunday, and I believe God wants to do something special in our church family! We're continuing The Road to Promise through Exodus with a message called "There's Something in the Water" from Exodus 15:22-27. Isn't it amazing how quickly we can forget what God has done when life doesn't go the way we expected? One moment, we're celebrating His goodness, and the next, we're questioning His...

Harvest Ministries September 26, 2026 The Time is Now! Hey Reader, Currently, I'm across the globe along with our mission team as we serve in Uganda, but I want you to know that my heart is with my Harvest family back home! As we continue The Road to Promise, Pastor Brandon will be bringing the Word from Exodus 12:31-51 with a message called “Prepare to Go.” After everything Israel experienced in Egypt, the moment finally came when God said it was time to move. The promise they had been...

Harvest Ministries September 19, 2026 Time is Ticking! Hey Reader, Tomorrow, we're continuing The Road to Promise through Exodus, and I believe this may be one of the most important messages we've shared in this entire journey. We'll be in Exodus 12:1-30 with a message called “There's Still Time.” For generations, the story of Passover has pointed us toward Jesus. The lamb points to Jesus. The blood points to Jesus. The bread points to Jesus. And the deliverance of God's people points us to...
