NEW BEGINNINGS

Writer's picture: Pastor PatrickPastor Patrick

Happy New Year!

                As we enter 2025 I am excited for Heritage Church.  I believe we are entering a year of new beginnings.  My prayer and hope this year is that we will be a church of deeper faith, a richer spirit; a church of bountiful fruit where we see God moving in people’s lives in new ways and using each one of us in ways we perhaps never dreamed.  I think 2025 is the year for us where the rubber meets the road in our faith—where we are to practice what we preach and live out our inner life with God in our outer life in ministry to all.

                In service to this, in February in our Momentum Groups we will be starting a new course called Practicing the Way.  This eight week course helps us as believers truly become disciples of Jesus, not just by believing things about Jesus; but by joining Him as an apprentice: walking where he walks, speaking what he says, and doing what he does.  So if you have not been part of a Momentum Group I hope you will join one so you can be part of this course that will lead us through the practices to indeed become such followers of Jesus.

                To prepare for that, this month I will be preaching through a series, called “Renewing the Mind” telling of the transformation that happens in us as we allow God’s Word to renew our minds and change our hearts.  In a sense, this month will share the life that is available to us through God and His Word, while next month will start to show us the practical steps to implant that Word in our hearts permanently through the practices we undertake as Christians to form and shape us into lifelong followers of Jesus.  So come dive in to what God is doing and come get involved!

                Finally, I want to thank all of you for your prayers for my family these past months.  Jess and I have gone through a season that has been tough, but it is my belief God has allowed this season to deepen our faith and prepare us for richer life and deeper ministry to come.  Thank you all for your prayers, love, and support during this time, and my prayer is from this season we will see testimony and breakthrough that will glorify God and change us all.

                I am thankful to be your pastor, and excited to the new beginnings God will be bringing in 2025.  God bless you, Heritage!  The best is yet to come!

                                                                                                                                                In Him,

                                                                                                                                                Patrick
