Message from Pastor Jim

Dear Friends,

Luke tells us about a remarkable moment at the cross: a thief, with nothing left to offer, turns to Jesus and simply says, “Jesus, remember me.” And Jesus responds with a promise overflowing with grace: “Today you will be with Me in paradise.”

It’s a beautiful reminder that God’s mercy doesn’t depend on how polished or perfect we are. The thief had no time to fix his past or clean up his reputation—but he did turn his heart toward Jesus. And that was enough.

If Jesus could welcome a broken, dying thief into His kingdom, imagine how gladly He welcomes you. Whatever your week looks like, whatever burdens you carry, remember this: our hope is not in our goodness, but in God’s goodness.

And the King who remembered the thief
is the same King who remembers you.

Grace and peace,

Pastor Jim
