As we enter Christmas week, for anyone finding themselves feeling less than joyful or needing some encouragement this holiday season, this week's blog post on Connection is for you❤️

You don't have to explain your heart to a God who has felt it beat. As we enter Christmas week, we reflect on the radical empathy of “God with us.” You are seen, you are known, and you are irrevocably loved.

This past week, we are so blessed to have had the opportunity to come together as an organization and spend time with Dave Bucknam's daughters in fellowship and remembrance of Dave, and we are so grateful to be a community of believers who come together to share our faith and to live out service to God and to our community, of which Dave was a wonderful model. Knowing that we are created for community, we are thankful to not only work together, but to pray together and, when called, to grieve together. While we support one another in continuing the work Dave loved, we also continue to request prayer for his family and loved ones as they mourn the loss of a loving husband, father, grandfather, and brother.
