This Sunday in our Encounter series, Pastor Joshua points us to the transformative power of meeting Jesus, just as the man in John 9 experienced. Born blind, the man’s first encounter with Jesus opened his eyes—literally and spiritually—moving him from darkness to light, from confusion to clarity, from fear to worship. His story reminds us that our trials are never wasted, our obedience matters even before we see the outcome, and our personal testimonies shine God’s light into the world.

As we approach the Lord’s Table, let’s remember the One who brings sight to the blind, faith to the weary, and light to every shadow: Jesus, the Light of the World. “Once I was blind, but now I see.”

Please pray for Pastor Josh and the team as they prepare for our service.

Scripture: John 9:1-41
