We were so blessed to be given the opportunity to share God’s love at the @bayanihanfestival today! Our church members had a great time fellowshipping with community members and enjoying each other’s company. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hi!

This past Sunday, the couples of NLCF gathered for fellowship, connection, and reflection in God’s Word. Together, we explored the truth that marriage is designed to reflect our union with God (Ephesians 5:25-33).

Thank you for coming out and we look forward to seeing you at our next Couples Ministry event!
