📖 Scripture:  Luke 10:25–37 🎙 Message:  “The Parable of the Good Samaritan” – Rev.

The parable of the Good Samaritan reveals that neighborly love crosses boundaries of ethnicity, status, and comfort. While others pass by, the Samaritan stops, sees, and acts with compassion. His mercy become

📖 Scripture:  Matthew 25:1–13 🎙 Message:  “The Parable of the Ten Virgins” – Rev. Romy Velasco In Matthew 25, Jesus tells a parable about waiting — waiting that requires wisdom, preparation, and faithfulness.

📖 Scriptures:  Isaiah 7:14; Micah 5:2; Matthew 16:27; Revelation 1:7 🎙 Message:  “The First and Second Coming of Christ” – Rev. Romy Velasco From the prophets of the Old Testament to the final visions of Revelation, Scripture tells one unfolding story — God’s promise to come near and to make all things new.

📖 Scriptures:  Matthew 3:13–17; Colossians 1:15–20 🎙 Message:  Baptism of the Lord – Rev.

📖 Scripture:  Matthew 2:1–12 🎙 Message:  “The Wise Men” – Rev. Romy Velasco Epiphany Sunday celebrates the revealing of Jesus Christ to the world. In Matthew 2, the Magi — often called the Wise Men — follow a star, trusting that God is guiding them toward something greater than they can fully understand. Their journey is marked by persistence, courage, and faith. They travel far, ask hard questions, and refuse to stop seeking until they encounter the Christ child. When they

📖 Scriptures: Luke 1:18, 26–30; Matthew 1:20 🎙 Message: “All Fear Is Gone” – Rev. Romy Velasco As the Christmas season continues, Scripture reminds us that the coming of Christ is also the coming of courage, peace, and trust in God’s promises. Again and again in the birth narrative of Jesus, God meets human fear with divine reassurance. In Luke 1 , both Zechariah and Mary encounter the unexpected work of God — and with it, uncertainty and fear. In Matthew 1:20 , Joseph is r
