This Week at Highrock MetroWest

🏛️ Property Discernment Time

Many of you have mentioned it in passing during the school year — the parking lot on Sunday mornings; the crowded Kidsrock, nursery, youth room, and sanctuary; the noise in the nearby rooms during worship. I want you to know: we see it too, and we take it seriously. Our growth is evidence of God’s faithfulness to this community. And with growth comes a responsibility to steward what we have well. Over the coming weeks I want to have a conversation with you about our facility — to think together about what it means to care well for Highrock MetroWest.

🔥 Pastor John Mury will be with us this Sunday to preach a sermon, Spiritual Power to Make a Difference based on selected readings from Acts 2, in our current sermon series, Exponential: Spiritual Power to Make a Difference (based on the Book of Acts). The series will focus on pivotal sections in Acts where the Holy Spirit led the early Church. 

🕊️ War, Peace & the Gospel: A Panel Conversation — In light of a violent world, Jesus instructed his followers to be peacemakers. Yet how to live that out faithfully is a question that has challenged Christians for generations. Christians of genuine faith have searched the scriptures and yet arrived at different conclusions. Bring your questions for the open Q&A as we seek to listen, learn, and love one another well. Feel free to bring your lunch! This Sunday, June 14, 1–2 pm, in the Loft at the Arlington campus.
