Dear Church Family,

As we prepare to enter a new year, I want to personally invite you into a meaningful journey we will walk together beginning January 4. We are launching a church-wide discipleship pathway called Built Together—a six-week experience designed to help every person at First Alliance take their next step with Jesus.

Built Together is centered around four pillars of spiritual formation:
Belong. Believe. Become. Build.

These are not just themes; they describe what it means to grow as a disciple of Jesus. And for the first time, our entire church—Kids, Students, Adults, and Young Adults will be learning these same pillars at the same time.

A disciple is someone learning to trust and follow Jesus, becoming like Him, and helping others do the same. And discipleship happens best when we walk with one another. That’s why small groups will be an essential part of this journey.

To help everyone find a group (or start one!), we will host two Built Together Registration Days:
Sunday, December 21
Sunday, December 28

Several group leaders are already preparing to launch the week of January 4, and we would love to see every person connected to one of these (or host their own).

My prayer is that you will join us on this pathway. You don’t need to have everything figured out; just take the next step. Let’s grow in Christ together. Let’s discover what God wants to build in us and through us in the year ahead.

With love and anticipation,
Pastor Ricardo
