Week of Compassion Special Offering 2026
A NEW WAY

 When he returned to Capernaum after some days, it was reported that he was at home. So many gathered around that there was no longer room for them, not even in front of the door, and he was speaking the word to them. Then some people came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. And when they could not bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him, and after having dug through it, they let down the mat on which the paralytic lay. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Child, your sins are forgiven.” (Mark 2: 1 - 5)

  • FEATURED SERMON - written by Rev. K.J. Kim                               
    ​​Every step I have taken, every door I have passed through, has been both daunting and hopeful – full of uncertainty, yet alive with possibility. ... And in many ways, that is not just my story – it is the story of today’s world. We live in a time when so many people feel stuck, pressed up against barriers they did not choose. ... That is why this gospel story in Mark matters so much for us.
