THE GOD OF GENESIS: God Who Scatters

Not long after the flood, the people were once again filled with pride and a sense of self-accomplishment. They began to build a massive tower that would reach the heavens and create a name for themselves rather than worship God and find their identity in his name. As a result, the Lord sent confusion among the people and scattered them around the world. Today, we still are God’s family dispersed around the world. But we still find unity in faith, despite different cultures and languages. And there is a day coming when Jesus will return and gather all of his people together and bring us into his holy city.

• Romans 7:1-13

VBS K-5TH GRADE 2026 | This year, our offering for VBS is going towards the Saturday Morning Kids Program at Trinity Lutheran Church in Holly Hill, FL. Every other Saturday, volunteers at Trinity gather to share the Gospel with kids from their community who are at-risk. Kids who come have an opportunity to have snacks, take home food, learn a Bible story, and complete a craft while there. The ministry that Trinity does offers kids a place to be fed both physically and in spirit. This offering will go towards benefitting this ministry and the incredible work God is doing through it!
