Sabbath Sunday
No Services on December 29th
Sabbath Sunday: A Day to Pause and Reflect
This Sunday, we’re inviting our entire church family to step into a day of intentional rest and renewal. Sabbath Sunday is a time to:
Stop: Pause from the busyness of life.
Rest: Refresh your body, mind, and soul.
Delight: Enjoy the blessings of life, friends, and family.
Contemplate: Reflect on God’s goodness this past year and look ahead with hope.
Instead of gathering for services, we encourage you to lead yourself and your family into worship and the presence of God. We’ll provide a Sabbath guide to help you center your day around Him. Let’s embrace this time to find joy, peace, and renewal in His presence.

Heart for the House
Heart for the House is our annual offering that goes towards the expansion of the Kingdom of God through either initiatives within Abundant Life Church or by partnering with other organizations that are doing similar work.
This year we are supporting Reach Out Now. Reaching Out Now is a non-profit dedicated to empowering underserved youth and families in the Shenandoah Valley. Their programs focus on leadership development, community service, and empowerment. The organization also provides spaces like the Student Union for students to pursue personal growth in a supportive environment.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 with this year’s offering to go towards resourcing the Student Union Center.
