What to Expect the Next Couple of Weeks

June 11, 2026 • Rev. Aaron James and Rev. Paige Wolfanger

We're covering a lot of ground today! With Aaron out of town the next two weeks, we're previewing not only this Sunday, but June 21 and 28. We also cover Pride celebrations in Batavia and Dundee, reflecting on the nature of welcome and the challenge of unity and diversity in the Fox Valley. In Batavia, we're got three new stories: "A Church for All," "I'll Love You Forever," and "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day," which will shape our next three weeks. In Dundee, we've got at least two stories to focus on: that of Zacchaeus and the other of the "rich young ruler." What happens when we say yes to Jesus and our life changes? What happens when we say no and it doesn't?

Thanks for your patience while we're away for two weeks. See you soon!
