π Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 13:13; Hebrews 11:8-10 π Messages: Living Under The Abundance of God β Rev.

Obstacles to Grace - October 4, 2026
π Scriptures: 1 John 1:8-10; 1 John 2:1-5 π Message: Obstacles to Grace β Rev. Romy Velasco Godβs grace is infinitely abundant, yet we often find ourselves feeling disconnected from its power. In the first chapter of 1 John, the Apostle John addresses one of the greatest barriers to experiencing God's love: self-deception. When we claim to be without sin or pretend that we have no need for forgiveness, we shut out the very grace that seeks to heal and restore us. Rev. Romy

The Graciousness of God - September 13, 2026
π Scriptures: Galatians 3:5-14; Ephesians 2:8-10 π Message: The Graciousness of God β Rev.
