Hi Upward families! 💙 Just a reminder that Galaxy VBS starts tomorrow! Even if your family already has a church home, we'd still love to have your kids join us for a fun few evenings of games, music, crafts, and learning about Jesus. And don't forget—everyone who attends Monday or Tuesday will receive a free pool pass for our Family Night on Wednesday! We'd love to see your family there.

Happy Easter weekend, Upward families!! 🤍

Just wanted you to know I’ve been thinking about you all and praying for your families. It’s been such a joy getting to know you, and we care about you not just during the season, but beyond it too.

If you don’t have a church to go to tomorrow, we’d love to have you—no pressure at all. Sunrise service with breakfast is at 6:45am, and regular worship is at 10:50am.

You matter to us, and we’re really grateful for your families!

Hey Upward Families!

With nearly 200 amazing kiddos in our Upward program this season, it has truly been such a joy getting to watch them play, grow, and be part of this community.

Alongside my other responsibilities as Children’s & Youth Director, I’ve been working hard to continue editing all of the player photos. My hope is to have them finished and sent out before Friday.

I do want to apologize for the delay and thank you for your patience. I’ve tried to get them out as quickly as possible. This season I decided to personally invest in a camera and learn photography so I could help capture the heart and spirit of your incredible kids. I had never done photography or photo editing before, so learning the editing software has definitely been a fun (and sometimes time-consuming!) challenge.

It has been worth it though to help capture these memories from such a special season. Your kids are truly amazing, and it’s been a joy getting to photograph them.

Thank you again for your patience and support—I promise they’re coming soon!

🏀 Upward Basketball Reminder – Final Game This Saturday! 🏀

This Saturday will be our final Upward game of the season, serving as a make-up game from earlier in the season.

To find your game time and opponent, please refer back to the original schedule and look at the games listed for January 31. Those matchups and times will apply for this Saturday. We understand spring sports have kicked off, if you have another obligaion it is completly fine to miss.

It has been such a joy watching our players grow, learn, and encourage one another throughout this season. We are so thankful for each family, coach, referee, and volunteer who helped make this year special.

We are looking forward to celebrating everyone next week at our team banquets, where each player will be recognized and receive their Upward awards. 🎉

Thank you for an incredible season—we can’t wait to finish strong together this Saturday!
