Summer is almost here, and that brings some schedule changes but also new activities. We will change to two worship services for June and July. Children’s and Youth Ministries are on a summer break but resume on Sunday, July 27 with a Rally Sunday for children (ages 3 to grade 5) and a Back-to-School Kickoff for youth (grades 6 to 12).

Mountain Pathways is an original study and small group experience that invites participants to prayerfully evaluate the connection between their beliefs and their behaviors, and then pursue a pathway of growth as a follower of Jesus Christ.
In 2025 we are pursuing a special short-term, special gift campaign: “Retire the Debt & Re-floor the Gym.” Our goal with this fundraiser is to raise enough in special gifts within the year to eliminate the remaining mortgage debt of the Billy & Ann Still Life Center (apx. $250,000) and install a new sports floor in that building’s gym (apx. $150,000). Eliminating the remaining balance of our mortgage and completing the major improvement of the gym floor will free us to invest more fully in our mission to be “a generous community following Jesus for the good of the world,” toward our vision of “communities transformed because people are…”
Current and previous members of the Upward Sports basketball and cheerleading family are invited to make a one-time tax-deductible gift towards the purchase of the new floor. By donating to this project you are paying it forward to the next generation of Tucson youth.
Join with Rev. Ron and others from our congregation and community to read and discuss together the book Life After Loss (by Rev. Bob Deits) which provides wisdom and practical exercises for navigating the uncertain terrain of grief and recovery. We will meet through the season of Lent, for seven Mondays beginning March 3, 2025.
