Praise Reports, Courage in Times of Trouble, Intercessory Prayer Training (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/1)

As a church family, we have much to rejoice over and praise God for!

  • Congrats to newlyweds, Jacob and Stephanie Julian, who were married last Monday.
  • Congrats to Jae and Kelly on the arrival of their son, Xidan Smith 
  • Praise God that Elder Wayne Bullock is home from his back surgery and rehab.
  • Praise God that Bro. Joseph Hancock is home.  Here is Brandi Hancock's testimony about her dad:
“I am elated and beyond excited to know that in 29 days my father has managed with God's strength to survive a massive heart attack! He died for 7 minutes but God said not so, my mother his Wife managed with the strength of God to administer chest compressions until the paramedics arrived, after being shocked 11 times he slipped into a coma and battled pneumonia. He has LESS THAN minimal brain damage! You can't tell me God is not a healer! The wheelchair is policy but Yes! He can walk! By the way he was released 11 days ahead of schedule! Thank you all for your undying support, your prayers, food, rides, love, and encouragement. WHEN God does things He does it well!! So praise with me right now cuz God Has Done It Once More!” 



We're following the 52-week reading plan. We are on week 44.  The importance of daily Bible reading is that it builds confidence and trust in God.  As we read about what God has done for His people in the past, we should know that God can do the same today.  He is the same God as He was back in biblical history.

Join us for our next Bible Study series, "Courage in Times of Trouble," a study of 1st and 2nd Peter, beginning Wednesday, November 4th, at 7:00pm. We'll be looking at how we, as Christians, handle suffering, adversity, and calamity in our lives.

On Saturday, 11/14, we're having a training workshop for the Intercessory Prayer team from 9 to 11am in the MPR. All are welcome to attend if you're interested in learning more about the ministry of intercessory prayer.

And congratulations to Deacon Bobby Dunn and Sis. Tracy Downing on getting engaged today!
