In the risen Christ, God invites us into a new Spirit‑shaped identity, one that turns us toward hope, transformation, and participation in God’s mission for the world.
This Sunday, we continue listening to Peter’s Pentecost sermon in Acts 2, where the risen Jesus is proclaimed as the Messiah who not only fulfills God’s promises but also gives the Holy Spirit to shape a new kind of people. Last week, we heard how Spirit’s arrival opened hearts through understanding; this week, we explore what happens next. Peter’s message is not a word of condemnation but an invitation, an invitation into repentance, baptism, and a Spirit‑formed identity that sends us into the world with purpose.
Join us as we reflect on what it means to belong to Christ and to participate in His mission of forgiveness, renewal, and hope. See you Sunday morning, in person or online.
