Weekly Update // Pastor John

Dear Asbury Family,

This Sunday we will join with Christians all over the world in celebrating World Communion Sunday. This day reminds us that the Table we gather around stretches farther than our eyes can see. When we take the bread and cup, we are united not only with one another, but also with believers in every nation, every language, and every tradition. It’s a beautiful glimpse of God’s Kingdom that is diverse, global, and yet gathered as one in Christ.

As we celebrate this unity, we also look forward to our Fall Festival! I pray the preparations to transform your Trunk are well underway and the treats are plentiful.  This is a joyful chance to open our doors and parking lot to the community, to bless families, and to share laughter and hospitality. You can help make it a success by decorating a trunk, donating candy, or lending a hand with setup. However you choose to serve, you’ll be helping us shine Christ’s light in a simple but powerful way.

And beyond these special moments, fall is full of opportunities to grow, serve, and connect. Whether it’s joining a small group, helping with missions, or being part of our vibrant worship life, there are so many ways to plug in and be part of what God is doing here at Asbury. You belong here, and your presence helps our church family thrive.

I look forward to gathering with you this Sunday around Christ’s Table, and I can’t wait to celebrate the season ahead together.

Grace and peace,

Pastor John
