Let's Pray!! 🙏🏼⛪️
I want to share something that we believe could be a meaningful step in the life of our church. A unique opportunity may be opening before us: the possibility of acquiring the former St. James Methodist Church, located at 2033 E Washington Blvd, Pasadena, CA 91104, which is now permanently closed.
While nothing is finalized, we believe that this may be more than just a real estate opportunity — it could be a divine invitation. We sense that God may be moving, and we want to be attentive, prayerful, and obedient to His leading.
Psalm 127:1a “Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it.”
As we consider this, we are calling our entire church family to a season of intentional prayer. We are asking God to make His will clear, to give us spiritual wisdom and unity, and to prepare our hearts for whatever He may ask of us. Let’s pray not only for clarity, but for faith — the kind that boldly trusts Him, even when the path ahead is unfamiliar.
James 1:5 “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.”
If God is indeed leading us in this direction, it will require generosity, not just financially, but in spirit — generosity of time, service, prayer, and encouragement. As the early church responded to the movement of the Holy Spirit, they did so with open hands and united hearts.
2 Corinthians 8:3, 5 “For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing... but they first gave themselves to the Lord, and then to us by the will of God.”
We don’t want to get ahead of God—but we do want to be ready to move when He says “Go.” We are praying for His glory to be revealed through every step of this process, whether it leads to a new church home or simply a deeper trust in His perfect plan.
Let’s seek Him together. Let’s listen. Let’s be willing. And let’s stay open to how He may be calling us to grow, stretch, and believe Him for more.
With faith and love,
Pastor Phillip and Team

Just Men's Conference
September 13 at 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
Hey, guys!
Get ready for an awesome time at the Just Men Conference. It's a gathering of men from all walks of life to hang out, be encouraged, and grow together in biblical masculinity.
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. 14 Let all your things be done with charity.
Let's learn from God's Word what real masculinity looks like. Join us for inspiring speakers, engaging workshops, and of course, lots of fun.
We're going to hear from some men whom God has called to start brand new churches on the West Coast (some right here in Southern California!).
Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with other men and be encouraged in your journey. See you there!
