Church Family,

What a weekend we just experienced! This past Sunday was one I'm sure none of us will soon forget! I am so grateful to God for what took place during our Commitment Sunday. Be sure to watch the video below to see a brief recap.

Thanks for watching. We love you, Champion Forest family.

I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for our church. First, the spirit of Champion Forest amazes me. The sense of anticipation and excitement since we launched the vision for NEXT has been palpable. Everyone has been so supportive and encouraging. Watching our children come forward to place their offerings on the altar was one of the most moving moments I've experienced as a pastor. And to see our entire church family follow one by one, row by row, bringing your "first and best" offerings to the Lord was simply beautiful. It was a powerful act of worship and a tangible declaration of your faith in what God is doing through our community of faith.

If you were unable to participate this past Sunday, or if you haven't yet given your "first and best" offering, there is still time. You can do so by visiting next.championforest.org. Every gift matters, and we want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to be part of what God is doing through our NEXT Initiative.

If you missed the message from this past weekend, you can watch it here: Worthy of Our All.

Please mark your calendars for Sunday, March 22, 2026 for Celebration Sunday. On that day, we will announce both the total of our "first and best" offerings as well as our three-year pledge commitments. I believe this is going to be a moment of great celebration as we see what God has done through the faithfulness of His people.

Thank you for being a church on mission. Let's keep advancing the Kingdom by making disciples, loving our community, and strengthening the Church.

Pastor Jarrett
