A Promise of Restoration
“In that day I will restore the fallen house
[kingdom or tent/tabernacle] of David.
I will repair its damaged walls.
From the ruins I will rebuild it
and restore its former glory.
And Israel will possess what is left of Edom
and all the nations I have called to be Mine
[so that the rest of humanity, including the Gentiles—might seek Me
/ all those I have called to be Mine—might seek Me].”
The Lord has spoken,
and He will do these things.
Amos 9:11&12 (NLT)

  • MondayWaffles & Worship (Young Adults)— 6:30 p.m. at Brian and Austin’s place in Cornelius. Waffles and Worship is a young adult group (from high school up to around age 30) that seeks to create a place for community and fellowship while also remembering that we have a greater dream and destiny to pursue as believers. Our meetings will consist of a short time for fellowship and waffles starting at 6:30 p.m. We will then transition around 7:00 p.m. to a time of worship followed by a Bible study. We then like to wrap up our meetings by praying for and encouraging one another as we face the week ahead of us. If you love waffles and are looking to build community with other young adults and pursue God alongside fellow believers, come check our group out!
