Welcome to this week in Wardopoly where our faith and fellowship feel like a familiar walk through town
This week we’re imagining our ward life as a Monopoly-style board built out of places and experiences from Dripping Springs that feel like home. Instead of spaces like Boardwalk and Park Place, our board has Mercer Street in downtown Dripping Springs, neighborhoods like Big Sky Ranch and Highpointe, grocers like HEB, family gathering spots, and annual community celebrations like Founders Day. These are places we know, places we see neighbors, and places that remind us of community, connection, and shared history.
In Wardopoly, rolling around the board isn’t about money, it’s about the moments that bring us together, the choices we make each week, and the spiritual strength we collect when we worship and serve together.

🤝 Ministering is Like Chance Cards
In Wardopoly, a Chance card can change your day unexpectedly. Ministering can change someone’s life just as suddenly and beautifully. A simple text, a visit, or a shared scripture can be someone’s “Chance card of kindness”

The Fall of Adam and Eve
Genesis 3-4 and Moses 4-5
This week’s study invites us to follow the first family on the earliest turns of life’s board, decisions that shaped all that came after. Like the first rolls in Wardopoly, the Fall wasn’t the end but the beginning of a plan that introduces us to Christ’s redeeming influence in every part of life. Let’s reflect on how choices, even difficult ones, can lead us closer to the Savior when we commit them to Him.
