As we past the halfway mark of 2026, it is a good time for us to pause and reflect on our church theme: Shaped for Destiny.

Through our sermon series shared across our four language congregations, along with our Lent series, prayer meetings, and the EL Core Values, God has been inviting us to consider how He is shaping us, personally and as a church family.

Let us ask ourselves honestly: Have I grown in trusting God’s plan, even when I don’t fully understand the path? Am I learning to yield more willingly to the Potter’s hands — letting Him shape my thoughts, attitudes, priorities, and decisions?

The shaping process is not always comfortable. But in His hands, it is always purposeful.

As we step into the second half of the year, may we keep walking in faith, surrender deeply, and trust that the Potter is preparing us for His destiny.
