I hope this note finds you safe and warm, enjoying the beautiful scenery of yet another weekend snowstorm. Unfortunately, due to the snow, Chesterfield County has closed all of their school buildings for the weekend. This means that our Sunday morning Worship Experience must be canceled. We wish the situation were different, but it is out of our hands.

This does not mean though, that you cannot spend time in worship of our great God and King tomorrow. God has given us an amazing mission through His Son, Jesus, and that mission is all around you in the lives of the people in your neighborhood. Even though many of us may not venture out in our vehicles until Monday, this is an amazing opportunity to get to know the people in your neighborhood. From helping others shovel snow, to inviting them over to share a meal, we can use this as an opportunity to build relationships with those in our extended community.

Keep in mind that we WILL be meeting next Sunday, February 7 @ Swift Creek Elementary @ 10 am. We will continue through chapter 4 of Galatians as we conclude our 3-week Freedom mini-series with “Freedom to Dream.” This is a message that will cast a vision of the fact that God has a greater plan for our lives than we could ever imagine, and through Jesus, we have the freedom to dream big for the Kingdom of God. You do not want to miss it!

Who knows, maybe today or tomorrow, you will talk to someone who you can bring to The Village for the first time to hear this message and a life will be forever changed!

Please, stay safe. We are praying for you this weekend, but in all that you do, remember the mission of Jesus!
