FROM PASTOR CLAYTON WILFER, JOY CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY CHURCH:
“Since the pandemic, people have been searching for meaning but really don’t know where to find it. We’ve seen an increase in loneliness and even suicide, but also anger and violence. And when they look to the world for answers, what they find is division everywhere. What people need to hear—what they are seeking—is some good news, which is exactly what Jesus offers. He offers a new life with eternal meaning. So, do I think now is a good time to share the Gospel with the people of Fountain Hills? Yes. Definitely yes!”
FROM WILL GRAHAM:
“More than anything, I want the people of Fountain Hills and Greater Phoenix to know that Jesus loves them and has a plan and purpose for their lives. Through Christ’s life, death and resurrection, He’s paved the way for each of us to have a personal relationship with Him. Jesus wants to take our brokenness and give us each a new life in Him. I’m excited to share this hope-filled message at the Look Up Celebration at The Fountain.”
