Grace Cathedral Community Church - Flint

👊🏽 CATCH THESE SERVING HANDS 👊🏽

What a powerful day at GC3!

Today, we were reminded that the world measures greatness by position, power, and prestige, but Jesus measures greatness by service.

🙌🏽 Position asks, “What can I get?”
🙌🏽 Participation asks, “What can I carry?”
🙌🏽 Purpose asks, “Who can I help?”

We were challenged to move beyond titles, recognition, and platforms and embrace the heart of Jesus—the heart of a servant.

A special Happy Father’s Day to all of the fathers, grandfathers, spiritual fathers, and father figures! Thank you for your leadership, sacrifice, strength, and the countless ways you serve your families and our community. We celebrate and honor you today! 👔

👊🏽 CATCH THESE BUILDING HANDS 👊🏽

What a powerful start to our new series, Catch These Hands!

Today, we were reminded that God is not looking for what we don’t have—He’s looking for what He’s already placed in our hands. From gold and silver to fabric and wood, every person in Exodus 35 brought something different, but together they built a dwelling place for God’s presence.

The same is true for the Church today. Every gift matters. Every contribution matters. Every hand matters.

💡 There is value in you, but your value becomes active when it’s connected to the Body.
💡 Serving fuels capacity because every surrendered hand strengthens what God is building.

As GC3 continues to grow, we’re believing that God is raising up hearts on fire and hands at work. The house gains capacity when the people put their hands to the vision.

And we celebrate God for adding to our church! 🙌🏾

“This Is My Story, This Is My Song” | Psalm 121

Today, God used Minister Angilena Stallings in a mighty way as she delivered her initial sermon with power, passion, and conviction. Through Psalm 121, she reminded us that no matter what season we have faced, God has been faithful every step of the journey.

✨ He kept me through the good.
✨ He kept me through the bad.
✨ He kept me through the ugly.

Every testimony in the room pointed back to one truth: if we’re still standing, it’s because the Lord has been our Keeper. Through victories and valleys, celebrations and setbacks, mountaintops and messy moments, God has never taken His hand off of us.

Today was a reminder that our story is evidence of God’s faithfulness, and our song is the praise that rises from His keeping power.

Congratulations, Minister Angie! Your GC3 family celebrates you and thanks God for the word He placed in your heart. And we wish you a happy birthday! 🎉

There’s something powerful about realizing that God never mass produced any of us. Every scar, every struggle, every gift, and every testimony was woven together with intention. Just like no two fingerprints or snowflakes are alike, no two callings are alike either.

Today’s reminder: stop shrinking yourself trying to fit into someone else’s mold. God designed you on purpose, for a purpose. What tried to break you may actually be the very thing God uses to reveal His glory through your life.

You are not random.
You are not overlooked.
You are not a duplicate.

You are fearfully, wonderfully, and intentionally made. 💙
