C3 Family,
What a joy it has been to walk through the book of Philippians together! This powerful letter has reminded us of the deep encouragement we have in Christ, the joy of unity, and the strength we find in pressing on toward the prize. I pray that each message has helped anchor your heart in Jesus and encouraged your faith in new ways. I'm also greatly encouraged by the success of the C3 Kids day that was organized this week as our kids had a fun day of learning about the fruit of the Spirit, played games, had fun crafts and great food!
As we move through July, I want to encourage everyone to stay connected and continue growing in community and attending church events. Yes, it’s warm—but let's not allow the weather to stop us from gathering for Jesus! We have several opportunities this month to get plugged in, grow deeper, and enjoy the fellowship of the body.
Men, you’re invited to join a new Tuesday night Bible study at Brother Henry Felipe’s home in Reedley. This is a great opportunity to grow in the Word and strengthen bonds with other brothers in Christ. Women, don’t forget to attend our Coffee Hour meetup—always a refreshing time of encouragement and connection. We also have a C3 NextGen Youth trip to Magic Mountain this month as a great outreach and opportunity to invite your friends & family to experience a day out with the C3 family.
Fellowship is vital to the life of our church. Let’s not neglect it. Let’s lean in, lift each other up, and enjoy the beauty of Christ-centered community this summer.
With love and joy,
Pastor Michael Rodriguez
