The

The All right. Who's excited to be in God's house today? Come on anybody here at Grant's Mill,

every location. I love it, I love it. I am so excited to be here with you guys today. Just so grateful

to be here with you today. We had an amazing time of worship here at Grant's Mill, and I know the same

is true at every location, and we're so glad you guys are with us. I do want to say hello officially

to all of our campuses in Alabama and over in Georgia. As always, the men and women of the Alabama

correctional facilities. We love you. So grateful you're part of our church family. And then anyone

online or on demand, come on one more time, church, put your hands together for the

Highlands family. We love you guys. I'm fired up today to get in God's word. As you saw in the

opener there, we're in a series on the Fruit of the Spirits. If you're new, we're in part four of

that series, and I'll jump in that in a moment. I did want to update you on a couple of things first, though. Number one,

as you know, we've just experienced a tragedy in our region with Hurricane Helene. And I wanted to

make sure you guys know, and your campus pastors will actually give you more details later,

but we immediately responded on your behalf. So even right now, during this service, we have

teams on the ground down in Florida. We're sending teams to Tennessee and North Carolina.

And so your generosity has allowed us to do that.

Literally, there are going to be hundreds of thousands of man hours that are going to be given to those communities

to help restore all that has been, just such a tragic situation, all that's been wiped out with the floods and the wind and all of that.

So I want to make sure you guys know that and just say thank you.

Thank you for being so generous so that our answer is always yes and yes immediately.

And again, you'll hear more details on that and how you can continue to be a part in a moment.

And then secondly, I want to take a moment.
