 <tbody><tr><td>This week, Rev DH will share a message “Beloved”, based on the Gospel reading from Matthew 3:13–17. This passage recounts the baptism of Christ, a significant moment in which God’s love is clearly revealed. Through Jesus’ baptism, we witness the affirmation of His identity and the profound declaration of God’s love for His Son. This event encourages us to reflect on the meaning of baptism and the assurance of God’s love for each of us, inviting us to recognize God’s presence and grace in our own spiritual journeys. Every Sunday, we provide opportunities for meaningful worship through a range of services that cater to different preferences, including at-home participation and in-person fellowship. The 8:00 am service features Communion; additionally, the CAYA Contemporary Service at 9:00 am and the Traditional Service at 10:30 am are available both via live stream and as recorded sessions. Attendees will have the opportunity to receive thoughtful messages and participate in music, scripture readings, and community activities that honor God's enduring love and presence. </td></tr>
