Thirst Kids Summer Reading Program: “Scripture Scoops” Summer in the Psalms
From June through August, we’ll read one verse from the book of Psalms each day, then kids can write and decorate that verse on an ice cream scoop card. Bring your completed scoops back to church all summer long as we fill our giant ice cream bowl in the Kids Wing. And if we reach our goal, we’ll celebrate with a special ice cream party in September! Pick up your Reading Program materials from Miss Kristen in Thirst Kids on May 17th! (and available any Sunday thereafter!)
AGAPE: LOVE | Word of the Year
Each year, we choose a guiding word to focus our hearts on God’s direction, shaping how we pray, trust Him, and live out our faith together. Our word for 2026 is Agape: the selfless, sacrificial love of God. Our theme verse comes from the Gospel of John 13:34: “Love one another as I have loved you.”
To help keep this word and verse before you all year long, you can download phone and smartwatch wallpaper backgrounds from our website featuring our Word and Verse of the Year designs! Also! We’ve got FREE Agape stickers available! Help us share our Word of the Year by grabbing one from the Welcome Table in the lobby before or after service. Stick it on your water bottle, laptop, or wherever you’ll see it often, and be reminded to live out Agape love all year long!
Thirst Merch | Agape Series Hoodie & T-Shirt!
Don’t forget to check out our Thirst merch shop! We’ve got a variety of Thirst-branded apparel and gear available online, and you can view samples of almost everything we offer right in the lobby on Sunday mornings. Be sure to take a look at our new Agape Series hoodie and t-shirt as we walk together through the book of John and grow deeper in the love of Christ.
