4/3/2024 A Note From Pastor Jacqui
Dear Friends, The word of God reminds us that “there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven”.

Dear Friends, As we prepare for our Holiest of Weeks, I share a hymn and the miracle of the cross today. A cross is an instrument of loathing, suffering, death, fear, and shame. We ought to look at it with loathing. And yet, through the sacrifice of Christ, the very “Prince of glory,” the cross […]

Dear Friends, On Saturday, we had a beautiful women’s Retreat celebrating that as God’s creation, we are wonderfully made. This week, I changed my tires, and on my walk home, I was transfixed at the beauty of a tree filled with the most magnificent yellow flowers; going for a walk in Cooper City, I marveled […]

Dear Friends,I hope you are well today. This morning, I went for a walk and took a photo of a Muscovy Duck as a reminder of this past Sunday. You had to be there to get the full impact, but it was a Sunday of all sorts of ‘things going wrong’ for me! Sometimes, things […]
3/6/2024 A Note From Pastor Jacqui
Dear Friends,Living the Resurrection during Lent is an invitation to search for a deepening faith.

Dear Friends,As our Lent journey continues, I pray you are well and experiencing God’s grace. This week’s study on Peter in our Third Day Journey with Bishop Berlin reminds us that God permanently restores us even when we mess up, much like when Peter denied Christ three times. Jesus seeks Peter, cooks him a special meal […]

Dear New Horizon Family,Give us this day our daily bread!When Jesus teaches us to pray, we are reminded that all we have is TODAY! Sometimes, so much of our lives are lived in the past, nostalgia or crippling regrets, or the unknown future. Part of our spiritual practice is to live in the NOW!The containment of […]
