Justice is in the news all over the world. As parents, how do we teach justice to our children and teenagers? Maybe we teach it by demonstrating it in our homes. Click the link below to visit our Youth page to learn more.

Thy Will be Done
Yesterday’s Gospel Lesson included the following verses from Matthew 11:
28 “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
Perhaps these last few months have left you feeling burdened and in need of rest. Click the link below to visit our Worship&Music page for a music break today.
Mental Health and Faith
The news reports are telling us that more and more people are reporting symptoms of depression and anxiety during COVID-19. These are difficult days, and we hope today’s post will encourage you and help you encourage others. Please visit our Adult page by clicking the link below.
This Little Light of Mine
“This Little Light of Mine” is a staple heard at Vacation Bible School. Churches may not be gathering in person for VBS, but you’ll get great joy hearing the song performed by someone who may surprise you. Click the link below to visit our Adult page for this unusual rendition of the classic song.
Lift Every Voice and Sing
One of our Desert Cross choir members sent us today’s story. She loves singing the hymn “Lift Every Voice and Sing” and learned that it’s known as the Black National Anthem and a beloved Civil Rights song. Click the link below to visit our Adult page to learn more about this favorite hymn.
