From Hope to Following the King
This past Sunday we were reminded of the foundation of our hope. Our hope is not in our circumstances, our strength, or our ability to hold on. Our hope is in the risen Christ. Because our hope is in Him, we anchor ourselves in God’s Word. His Word continually points us to Christ, shapes our hearts, and teaches us how to live faithfully in a changing world. Pastor John reminded us that faithful followers of Jesus keep their eyes fixed on Christ, anchor themselves in God’s Word, and trust God with the results. But that naturally leads to another question: What does faithful living actually look like? Faithfulness is more than believing the right things. It is learning to live every part of life under the reign of the right King. That’s where we’re headed over the next three weeks. Beginning this Sunday, we’ll start a new series called Seek First, following Jesus’ teaching from Matthew 6, Matthew 13, and Matthew 7. Together we’ll discover what it means to live as citizens of God’s Kingdom. Week 1 — Seek the Right Kingdom Matthew 6:19–34 What do you treasure? How do you see the world? Where does your allegiance truly lie? Week 2 — Be the Right Soil Matthew 13:1–23 Jesus teaches that the condition of our hearts determines how we receive His Word and whether our lives bear fruit for His Kingdom. Week 3 — Build on the Right Foundation Matthew 7:13–27 Every life is built on something. Jesus calls us not merely to hear His words, but to put them into practice by building our lives on Him. As you prepare your heart this week, spend a few moments reflecting on these questions: What do I value most? How do I see the world? Where does my allegiance truly lie? My prayer is that throughout this series God would continue shaping us—not simply into people who know about His Kingdom, but into people who joyfully live under the loving rule and reign of King Jesus. We’d love for you to join us this Sunday as we begin Seek First. Sunday School: 9:30 AM Worship Gathering: 10:45 AM “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 -Pastor Michael

Parents, Join us for 21 days of Prayer
Prince Street Church has begun a 21-day prayer emphasis, September 13 through October 3. During these 21 days, our church family is praying one simple prayer each day: “Holy Spirit, help me see where You are at work today and give me courage to join You.” Parents, we would love for you to participate—and to invite your family to pray with you. Here are three prompts to help you begin: Spirit, lead me. Give me patience, wisdom, and grace in the way I speak and respond at home. Spirit, lead our church. Help Prince Street Church support families and become a spiritual family for people in every season of life. Spirit, lead us into our community. Show our family a neighbor, classmate, or local need that we can pray for and serve together. You might pray together at breakfast, around the dinner table, at bedtime, or during the drive to school. Then ask one another: Where did you notice God at work today? Whether you begin today or have been praying from the start, we invite your family to join us. #21DaysOfPrayer #PrinceStreetChurch #SpiritLeadOurFamilies

From September 13 through October 3, Prince Street Church is setting aside 21 days to seek God together.

Each post includes a short reflection and a specific prayer focus based on one of three prompts: Spirit, lead me. What does God want to do in my life? Spirit, lead our church. How is God leading Prince Street Church? Spirit, lead us into our community. Where is God already working around us, and how can we join Him? Visit our Facebook page each day to follow the campaign and pray alongside your church family. We have also created a phone lockscreen featuring our daily prayer. Download it below and set it as your lockscreen as a simple reminder to pause, pray, and pay attention to where God is working throughout your day.

Whether you’re joining us for worship, looking for ways to serve, or planning ahead for upcoming events, we hope you’ll find opportunities to grow in your faith and connect with our church family. Worship This Sunday Join us this Sunday as Pastor Michael Gleason continues our Seek Ye First sermon series with a message titled “Be the Right Soil” from Matthew 13:1–23.
