Family Forward Sunday
Family Forward Sunday is coming up soon! On this special Sunday morning we will two unique sessions at our regular 9:00am & 10:30am times. Each time will have a different worship set, and a unique talk given by our Special Guest Speakers, Jon & Tammy Dupin.
Jon and Tammy Dupin have been married for over 27 years and are high school sweethearts who said yes to forever before they fully knew what forever would require. Their marriage has been shaped through every season, joy, hardship, growth, failure, healing, and deep friendship, giving them a lived conviction that lifelong love is built, not found.
For the past 27 years, Jon and Tammy have served together in leadership at Waymaker.Church in Forest, Virginia. Jon has served as Lead Pastor, and Tammy has served across the life of the church in both staff and volunteer roles, now serving as the Executive Ministry Leader. Together they have helped shape a church culture centered on transformation, belonging, and spiritual formation, walking closely with couples, parents, and families through seasons of challenge, growth, and renewal.
As they prepare to launch into a new chapter beyond Waymaker.Church, Jon and Tammy are focusing their shared calling on marriage and family formation, creating retreats, teaching environments, and resources where couples reconnect, homes are strengthened, and faith is carried into future generations.
They don’t teach theory. They share lived experience, honest stories, and practical practices that help people choose covenant love and build homes where faith can take root and grow.
The 9:00 session will have a marriage emphasis, and the 10:30 session will focus on family and children. We will have our regular 3C Kids ministry at both times, but we encourage you to come for the entire morning to make the most out of this incredible Sunday.

SESSION BREAKDOWN:
9:00 AM — Marriage Session
CHOOSING YOU AGAIN
"How lifelong love is built, not found."
Marriage was never meant to run on feelings alone. In a culture where commitment is optional and exit is easy, discover how lasting love is formed through covenant, not convenience. Jon and Tammy Dupin share real stories, practical rhythms, and a prophetic call to rediscover the power of choosing each other again, not just once, but for a lifetime.
Who it’s for:
Married couples, engaged couples, and anyone who wants love that lasts.
10:30 AM — Family Session
RAISING HEARTS
"Building a home where faith takes root and grows."
Our homes are shaping souls every day, whether we’re intentional or not. In this session, Jon and Tammy unpack how ordinary family life can become a powerful environment of belonging, identity, and faith. Learn simple practices that help children grow into adults who know who they are, where they belong, and how God fits into their story.
Who it’s for:
Parents, grandparents, future parents, and anyone who cares about the next generation.
