What Jesus Continues to Do // Fellowship
Our series on Acts continues with a focus on fellowship. Jasmine Wood preaches from Acts 9 and makes the case that holy community isn't a program, but the body of Christ made visible. Through the story of Saul's conversion and one man named Barnabas who chose to vouch for him when no one else would, we explore three movements of holy community: being taken before you've earned it, being witnessed through your transformation, and learning to show up before you feel ready.
What Jesus Continues to Do // Baptism
When the Philippian jailer asks, “What must I do to be saved?” The answer given leads to faith and baptism for him and his whole household.

Through baptism, Jesus continues to welcome people into his community and into the transforming life of the kingdom of God.
What Jesus Continues to Do // Scripture
Studying scripture is a daily meal- it sustains and nourishes you. In week two of our series in Acts, Vito Aiuto unpacks what it truly means to study God’s Word. It’s not about checking boxes or finding the right answers, it’s about knowing the true King and walking in his ways.

Easter Sunday 2026
Step into the first Easter morning through the eyes of Mary Magdalene—grieving, searching, and surrounded by darkness. In this message, Pastor Vito explores how Jesus’ resurrection came “while it was still dark,” revealing a God who meets us in our pain, doubt, and brokenness.

Wherever you are, this is an invitation to encounter the risen Christ who meets you right where you are.

The 12 Apostles // James the Lesser, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Thaddeus
In Luke 9:1-6, Jesus sends his men out with almost nothing. The apostles were simply given authority and a message. This week we step into the lives of the apostles and their assumptions about who is deserving of such a welcome.
The 12 Apostles // Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, and Thomas
To be fully known and fully accepted is at the heart of what every person wants.

The 12 Apostles // Peter, Andrew, James, and John
Jesus didn’t choose safe or "good" men. He chose fishermen and transformed them into leaders who changed the world. This week, we start our series on the 12 apostles by looking at the first four men Jesus called.
The Meal Jesus Gave Us // The Feast of the Future
The Bible begins with a broken meal in the Garden and ends with a promised feast in the new heavens and new earth. The Lord’s Supper looks back to the cross, makes Christ present with us now, and points us forward to the wedding feast of the Lamb.Vito Aiuto walks us through the meaning of this sacred meal: how, when we eat it today, we do so in hope, anticipating the day when God will make all things new and every hunger will be satisfied.
The Meal Jesus Gave Us // The Feast for the Journey

The Meal Jesus Gave Us // The Feast of the Family

The Meal Jesus Gave Us // The Feast of Faith
Pastor Vito Aiuto invites us to notice something we might be too close to see: the Bible’s story is deeply about food. From the garden to Jesus as the Bread of Life, scripture keeps asking what truly sustains us. Join us as we begin a four-week series on communion- the meal Jesus gave us to save and send us.
Abide // Our Friend Who Abides With Us
Vito Aiuto explores the difference between living by the clock and living in the kind of time shaped by abiding in Jesus. Instead of pressure to produce, Jesus invites us into his gentle friendship- a love that shapes us and calls us to love others the same way.
Giving Him Thanks
In this sermon, Vito Aiuto walks us through Luke 17 to reveal that the story of the ten lepers is ultimately about the mercy and mission of Jesus. Gratitude, he explains, is born when we truly see Christ- who comes to outsiders, heals the broken, and leads us into joyful praise.

What Child is This // The King Revealed Through The Kings
Vito Aiuto reflects on the name, Son of God, in the book of Matthew. This relational name reveals Jesus as the Son who enters exile, fulfills Israel’s story, and opens the way home. This Advent message invites us to see the gospel not just as forgiveness or hope, but as belonging in the family of God.
What Child is This // The King Revealed Through The Kings
In the third week of Advent, Vito Aiuto looks at Matthew 2 and the surprising kind of King Jesus is. As Herod attempted to maintain power, the Magi obeyed dreams and signs from God. In this season, Jesus invites us to listen, trust, and follow the true King.
