Your 2024 Wrapped: TLC Edition 🎧

Let’s hit rewind on a year full of heart, hope, and Holy Spirit vibes. Here’s how we made love local together in 2024:

9 Sermon Series that shaped our rhythm 🎙️

From the reflective Fast during Lent to the joyful Take Heart through Philippians, we traveled the way of Jesus together, one message at a time. Oh, and let’s not forget those 30 minutes of Bluey wisdom spread over four summer weeks. 📺

Each sermon rippled far beyond the Great Room at Woods Charter School through 5,159 text messages—delivering scripture, prayers, and next steps, so good ideas didn’t just stay ideas.

Gatherings that hit all the right notes 🎉

🎵 Community Feast brought 275 neighbors together and raised $8,000 for Feed-Well Fridges.

🌈 2nd Annual Pride Celebration Worship at The Plant? Big vibes.

🎤 And when Spencer LaJoye shared their soul through song, we were all a little more alive.

You showed up in sacred spaces, too:

• 🐦 Easter on the Bynum Bridge

• 🌳 Sweltering summer Sundays among the trees

• 🌅 Evenings with the Wild potlucks and sunsets that fed our spirits.

Your Generosity Was on Repeat 🫶

💸 Thousands of dollars raised for justice and hope in the world.

📚 220 teacher boost bags delivered to 3 schools.

📋 33 teachers saw their wishlists shrink.

Plus, you packed:

🚗 Trunks full of hygiene items for Love Chatham

🧥 Coats for the Winter Weather Survival Drive

📓 Journals for incarcerated women—a lifeline of hope.

Serving Hits, Hands-on Edition 🛠️

And let’s not forget the 8 baptisms we celebrated—moments when new life broke through, each one a joyful splash of God’s grace.

Transformation in Real Time ✨

From the friendships deepened around Local Tables to the sacred work of making love local, these are the moments no algorithm could ever fully capture.
