On October 26, Brooklyn & Cody Thom shared some exciting news with the congregation! They’ve both been accepted into a school program called the SEAL Team — an eight-month Christian education and leadership program focused on Serving others, Exploring faith, Advancing the gospel, and Leading with integrity.
As part of the program, they’ll be heading on a missions trip to Guatemala in May 2026, where they’ll serve in the rural community through children’s ministry, home visits, evangelism, and community projects.
To help fund the trip, they’ve launched “Bottles for Blessings” — a fun and practical fundraiser collecting refundable bottles, cans, and juice boxes. It’s a simple way for our church family to come alongside them in support.
They closed their presentation with two meaningful verses:
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” — Matthew 28:19
“The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.” — Matthew 20:28
Please join us in praying for them as they grow in faith and prepare to serve in Guatemala!
