As the air grows crisp and the leaves begin their beautiful change, we're reminded that a new season is upon us—not just outside, but within our church family. This fall, our theme is Better Together, a message that echoes the call in Hebrews 10:23-25. This passage encourages us to hold fast to our hope and to "consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together…but encouraging one another."

It's a perfect time for us to lean into this idea as we kick off our fall schedule. We're especially excited to have our Sunday morning education hour return for all ages. It's a wonderful opportunity for us to learn and grow in our faith, and to connect with one another in smaller groups.

Mark your calendars for an important day, Sunday, September 7. We will have one combined worship service at 9:30 AM, followed by a potluck and a significant Vision Assembly meeting. During this meeting, our Call Committee will share a recommendation regarding a pastor. This is a crucial moment for our Mount Olive family to come together and prayerfully consider the next chapter of our shared journey.

This is a time to be Better Together—to gather, to encourage, and to support one another as a family in Christ. We are so excited for all that God will do in this next season, and we can’t wait to see what amazing things He has in store for us.
