What is one helpful thing—like a specific song, a hot beverage, or getting out in nature—that almost instantly calms your mind after a stressful day?

This week’s message: Mission Embraced | John 20:21

Big Idea:
We are called to go.

Pray with your Group

Lead your group to turn toward God together. Westover's Groups gather around God’s Word, create space to adore and ask, care for one another, give thanks and guard unity, and ask for God's provision as we are sent out on mission. Gather your group around prayer (2 Corinthians 1:11). 

Group Leader Training 2026

Our main theme was simple: the people we lead in our groups are more important than our performance as group leaders. Our calling is to love others as Christ has loved us (John 13:34), whether we're leading discussions, organizing a group gathering, or caring for people through a difficult season. Below are resources from the GLT. 

The Lord's Prayer - Church-wide Series

Join us as we study the Lord’s Prayer as Jesus’ model for prayer, teaching us to honor God, seek His kingdom, depend on His provision, practice forgiveness, and trust His protection as we grow in daily dependence on Him.

The Mission

The mission of Westover Church is the same mission Jesus gave his followers:
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." 
In response, Westover's purpose is to develop maturing followers of Jesus Christ.

The Vision

Westover Church strives to be a church that both gathers to be equipped and scatters to fulfill the Great Commission. In our gathering, we desire to equip followers of Jesus Christ to be scattered to fulfill the Great Commission through our
Discipleship Pathway.
We equip followers of Jesus Christ through our Discipleship Pathway rooted in
Matthew 16:24 and summarized in 3 words: 

COME    |    DENY   |    FOLLOW 

COME to Christ    |    DENY ourselves    |    FOLLOW Him

COME to Christ

DENY ourselves

FOLLOW Him
