TSCC Update April 19, 2024

Hello Church! We look forward to worship and connection together. Our Service and Children’s Program starts at 10 AM and may be viewed live on our Facebook page and YouTube channel. Services are archived on YouTube and Facebook as well. The website link is below with information on connections and the calendar.  


Come worship and connect this Sunday! This Sunday is designated as Earth Sunday. Earth Day is Monday, April 22. We are here for one another and all of creation, the cosmos. God has made us to be stewards. We can learn amazing things from nature about God’s realm. Like nature, the kingdom (kin-dom; we are kin, siblings, God’s children) of God is made up of complex networks of interdependences and cycles of life and death and new beginnings. Jesus taught often about improving relationships, seeing the other as connected to us, and how essential interrelationships are. Thanks be to God.


Sandi Russell began the Children & Youth Music & Art Ministry on Wednesday at 6 PM (pics below), and the study group with pastor Chris started at 6:30 PM. What a great night together! RSVP if you’d like to hang out and have pizza together (info@tropicalsands.org) next week at 5:30 PM before the groups begin! Parents and guardians, you are welcome to drop off, stay and watch, or participate in the discussion group with Pastor Chris. Wednesdays will be a joyful gathering of activities!


All small groups and gatherings are always open and welcome to all so please share in the greater community. A Wednesday night banner will be up throughout the week with a QR code to scan along with a “Love One Another” banner. We also have small figurines “Jesus with QR” for everyone to give out which brings folks to our TSCC website. These are all visible and fun ways to spread the love of Jesus through TSCC in our community:)


Thank you all for your presence, positivity, and prayers.
