Summer Uniting-Rebuilding Families

Conquering the Waves of Life through Prayer, Worship, and the Word


We are so excited to journey through the summer with you as we draw closer to God, strengthen family ties, and spread love in our communities. This season is all about restoration, connection, and joy—and what better way to do that than through intentional moments of prayer, worship, and the Word (PWW), together?


Let’s make this summer one to remember—full of faith, laughter, and powerful transformation. πŸŒΏπŸ’’β˜€οΈ

🌊 Welcome to S.U.R.F.
Summer Uniting Rebuilding Families!

This week at TLC, we're diving into two powerful messages that remind us of God’s provision, presence, and power—even when we feel empty.

Pastor Niecy  takes us through 2 Kings 4, where a widow’s emptiness became the setup for an overflow miracle. When we reach the end of ourselves—emotionally, spiritually, or financially—God steps in. The oil, representing the Holy Spirit, flowed as long as there was room to receive.

Minister Melanie Organ  follows up with a word from 1 Corinthians 10, showing us that while God’s provision is constant, our obedience and gratitude still matter. The Israelites saw miracle after miracle, yet their hearts drifted.

Feeling empty? These messages remind us that God meets us in the emptiness, fills us with His Spirit, and calls us to stay aligned with Him.
