October Update
Hey Church Family,
What an incredible year it’s been! Jacinta and I are beyond grateful to lead Generations Church and to journey alongside each of you. Every person who calls this place home plays a vital role in making it feel like family, and we’re so thankful for all you do to help build His Church.
There is such a blessing in the freedom we have to gather, and every time you show up, it makes a real difference. Your presence strengthens our community and brings life to our Sunday gatherings.
Hebrews 10:25 reminds us: “Let’s not neglect meeting together, as some have made a habit, but instead encourage one another—especially as we see the Day approaching.”
We believe God moves powerfully when we come together in faith, and we’re so excited about what’s ahead. Keep pressing in, keep showing up, and let’s continue building His Church together.
Be blessed as you read this blog!
Much Blessing,
Jeremy & Jacinta
Water Baptism
If you’ve made the life-changing decision to follow Jesus, we are excited to walk with you on your journey of faith! Your next step is to follow His example through water baptism (Matthew 3:13-17).

A Huge Thank You for Supporting Operation Christmas Child!
We are thrilled to announce that over 40 boxes have been packed and will soon be on their way to children in over 170 countries and territories!
In addition, through your faithful tithe giving, we were able to purchase and pack 30 more boxes to send out, making an even greater impact.
Let’s continue to pray that these gifts will not only bring joy but also open doors for the Gospel to be shared and for discipleship opportunities to flourish.

Update on Redirection of funds
Hey everyone,
In my last blog, I mentioned that we’ve decided to shift some of the funds originally set aside for a youth bus. After some prayer and discussion, we felt that now isn’t the right time to buy a bus. Instead, we want to use those funds for some exciting vision items that will really help grow our kids and youth ministries.
We’ve had some helpful feedback that we missed a step by not checking in first with those who gave specifically toward the bus fund. That’s on us, and we really appreciate the insight. We’ve already contacted the donors we know about, but if you gave anonymously, we’d love to hear from you. Please let us know if you’re happy with this new direction or if you’d prefer a refund.
We’re committed to being open and transparent in everything we do, and your feedback helps us do better. Thanks so much for your grace and support as we move forward together—we believe great things are ahead!
