Worship is Life

No one is beyond God's reach. Each of us has an innate desire to connect and belong. At Community of Faith, we seek to bless our community and affirm each other through weekly worship, in small group community, and by service as the hands and feet of Jesus. Each week, we gather together in worship and small-group life to experience God, praise God, know God, and grow together as disciples of Jesus Christ so that we become a part of God’s transformation of the world.
We hope our ministries meet you where you are right now in life and that you experience God reaching out to you.  Worship is not something we do for an hour each week, it's who we are with every breath that we take.  Worship is life!

Welcome Home!

We can't wait to see you this Sunday.

Advent, Christmas & Epiphany Sermon Series

From Generation to Generation

The stories, scriptures, and traditions of the Christmas season have been passed down to us throughout the generations. Many of us enter this season with a swell of memories and emotions as vast as the cultural and religious rituals this holiday holds. Like a tapestry woven throughout time, the Christmas story weaves us in—to remember how God has shown up in the past, to continue the work of collective liberation, to behold the presence of God in flesh and bone.  As we read through and studied the scriptures we selected, a line from Mary’s song of protest and praise gave us pause:  

Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed; for the Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name.  His mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation.  

(Luke 1: 48b-50)  

Despite the challenges and vulnerability that she faced, Mary could glimpse the scale and scope of the good news she was part of bringing forth. This good news transcends time and space—it was and is bigger than just her. Christ is coming for collective liberation: God’s redemption is at work for years to come. Therefore, the promise is meant to be lived out and passed on from generation to generation.

Our December Sermon Series this year, Generation to Generation… reminds us of the ways our lives, histories, actions, and stories are interconnected and woven together. The work of God is always unfolding—in and through us.  This Advent, may you remember that you belong—to a story etched into the wrinkles of time, to generations that have come before and will come after, to a love that won’t let you go.
