This Week at First Reformed ~ 9/23/2018

Good afternoon everyone! This is the day that the Lord has made.

Let us rejoice and be glad in it!

This week, Pastor Christopher continued his series, "Welcome Home". Today's message focuses on the Parable of the Lost Son from Luke 15. This week's Christopher's Chat will offer a greater insight into this week's message. We also invite you to watch this week's service when it is uploaded. God bless!
