A Word From the Pastor, Reverend, Daeil Min

Dear Church Family,

June is a beautiful month in the life of our church—a time when the Spirit moves, young faith grows, and the seeds we've planted throughout the year begin to bear fruit.

This year, Pentecost Sunday falls on June 8, the same day we will joyfully celebrate Confirmation Sunday. On this sacred day, we remember how the Holy Spirit descended on the first followers of Jesus, empowering them to become the Church in the world. What a perfect moment, then, to witness our own confirmands stand before us, claiming their faith and stepping boldly into their lives as disciples. The same Spirit that moved through wind and flame at Pentecost is moving in their hearts—and in ours.

Then, on June 15, we will observe Education Sunday. We'll celebrate the dedication of our Sunday School teachers and volunteers, who pour love, creativity, and faith into every lesson.  We'll recognize our children and youth, who have spent the year learning about God's love and what it means to follow Jesus. Their questions, prayers, and laughter are not just the future of the Church—they are the Church right now.

During worship that day, we'll also present our scholarship recipients. As a congregation, it's our joy and responsibility to support them—not just financially, but spiritually and emotionally—as they grow into who God is calling them to be.

The Spirit is alive and active in our community—in the bold promises of our confirmands, in the joyful learning of our children, and in the hopeful steps of our scholarship recipients. Let's give thanks for all God is doing among us and be open to how the Spirit might be calling each
of us to grow, serve, and support one another in love.

With joy and gratitude,
Rev. Dale Min, senior pastor
