EARNING AND DESERVING
This Sunday, join us as we conclude our series on Luke 15, and look at one of the most powerful pictures Jesus ever gave us of the Father’s heart. It is a story that cuts right through our habit of trying to earn and deserve God’s love, and invites us into something far better. You will be encouraged, challenged, and reminded of the kind of Father we truly have.I hope to see you all this Sunday!

Join us at Tompkins High School at 10:00 am. The link to watch LIVE is on our YouTube Channel. You can go to our home page on our website or our App to connect.




God bless,
Pastor Scott
CHRISTMAS PRAYER WALK
This Saturday we invite you to join us for our Christmas Prayer Walk beginning at 9 in the morning. We will meet at 27110 Carmel Falls Lane before spreading out through the neighborhood to pray for homes, families, and hearts to be drawn to Christ during this season. As we walk, we will also be hanging door flyers to invite our neighbors to our Christmas Eve service. Come ready to walk, pray, and bless our community as we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior.
TURKEY TROT VIDEO
This week, we’ve added a special video to our newsletter that highlights one of our favorite moments from Thanksgiving Day. Take a moment to watch the recap from our Turkey Trot Be A Blessing event, where our church family came together to pass out water bottles and encourage every runner along the way. It was a simple act of kindness that made a powerful impact, and we are grateful for everyone who showed up to serve. Enjoy the video!
WOMEN'S CHRISTMAS PARTY
Get ready for a joyful evening at our Living Stones Ladies Christmas Party on Sunday, December 14, at 7:00pm. We will gather at the Sweitzer Home, located at 22006 Wickfield Drive in Katy, for a night of laughter, friendship, and festive fun. Bring a sweet treat or lite bite to share as we enjoy time together and take part in a lively White Elephant Gift Exchange. It is the perfect way to celebrate the season and connect with other women in our church family. SIGN UP HERE!
PICK UP YOUR ADVENT BOOK MARKERS
This Sunday, don't forget to pick up our Advent Bookmarks to help you slow down and focus your heart on Jesus throughout this Christmas season. Each bookmark includes a Scripture passage for every day of Advent, guiding you to reflect on the hope, peace, joy, and love that Christ brings. We pray these daily verses become a simple but meaningful way for you and your family to stay rooted in God’s Word as we celebrate the arrival of our Savior. Be sure to pick one up and journey through this season with us!
