Solid Rock (Peter Hayes) had a very special Christmas outreach earlier this month. Assistant Pastor Jennifer White leads Jonathan’s Heart Ministries which hosted a Christmas party. Jennifer shared, “Over 90 of the 120+ invited guests showed up and the smiles and happy faces were priceless! What a blessing it is to serve our autistic community this way.”

Everyone received an invitation to Solid Rock’s Christmas Eve service and there was even one person that tuned in the next day for the online service Sunday morning – PTL!

This will provide the content for the first three months of Clusters in 2023. Special Thanks to the 20+ Cluster Leaders who make this connection opportunity possible for our Ministerial Tribe.
